Built in 1963 by artists Pat and Nanno de Groot, this iconic East End waterfront home is a true reflection of Old Provincetown. Spread across three levels, the interior showcases original wood from floor to ceiling, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace that adds warmth and soul. Legally a two-family property, it includes two studio spaces in addition to the main living area--offering flexibility for guests, creative use, or rental income.Set on one of the largest front yards in town, the home's outdoor spaces are just as remarkable. A whimsical garden nods to its artistic heritage, while a nearly 1,000 sq.ft. waterfront deck provides rare and expansive space for outdoor living. With three decks in total, direct beach access, and panoramic water views that are uniquely breathtaking--even by Provincetown standards--this is a timeless and truly singular retreat. The property awaits its next chapter--ready to be reimagined.
