The Nutter-Rymes House is a historic house at 48 School Street in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Built in 1809, it is an unusual double house with an arched carriageway in the middle. The two houses were built by James Nutter for himself and Christopher Rymes, a merchant and real estate speculator, and were originally mirror-image duplicates. It is one of the best-preserved examples of the early urbanization of Portsmouth.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.[1]
