Tracing its roots to a classic Cape house and fishing shack in Provincetown's historic West End, this remarkable waterfront residence was elevated and transformed through an extensive restoration that preserved its authentic architectural character while reimagining the property for a new generation. Structural pilings and timbers salvaged from Boston's famed Jimmy's Harborside Restaurant were masterfully incorporated into the staircase and ceiling details. Rich pine floors, a rugged fieldstone fireplace, a custom Vermont marble kitchen with a soapstone island, a generous pantry, a waterfront dining room, and a harbor-facing sitting room define the interior layout. A rare and defining feature is the property's extraordinary private dock--the largest associated with any single-family residence in Provincetown--extending approximately 70 feet into the harbor and providing an unparalleled connection to the waterfront.
