Description

Waterfront East End Retreat with Unparalleled Views. Welcome to this rare and exceptional Provincetown waterfront property--an enchanting retreat with expansion potential. Currently a two-bedroom, antique-style single-family home, it is already connected to the sewer for four bedrooms with the betterment paid in full, giving a new owner the rare opportunity to unlock the full potential of this exceptional waterfront retreat. The property also includes a freestanding artist studio and a versatile accessory building, all offering panoramic views of Provincetown Harbor and beyond to Long Point. Step through the charming front gate crowned with lush wisteria into a private garden oasis. The beautifully landscaped side yard leads to separate entrances for both the main house and the artist studio, creating a sense of retreat and privacy. The main house spans nearly 2,000 sq ft and features one and a half baths. The entry level welcomes you with a spacious, open-concept living area anchored by a wall of windows that frame the dramatic water views, a true front-row seat to sunrise skies, harbor activity, and the serene coastal horizon. Kitchen, dining room and half bath complete the first floor. Two bedrooms with water views, and a full bath are found on the 2nd level. Adjacent to the main house, the standalone artist studio boasts nearly 500 square feet of light-filled space, ideal for creative pursuits. Connecting the house and studio are multi-level exterior decks, including stairs leading directly to the beach. Just beyond, the 3rd structure, a charming accessory building with its own direct water views, offers a blank canvas for a writing studio, home office, or other use. With privacy, serenity, and inspiring vistas from every angle, this extraordinary property offers the perfect balance of historic charm, creative potential, and rare expansion opportunity, just moments from the galleries, dining, and vibrant energy of downtown Provincetown. Property is being sold as is.
