You are on your own private deck up on the second story looking out across the water to Long Point lighthouse. Uninterrupted view. Lots to watch whether high or low tide or even just the coming and going of the tides. Look up from your book or cocktails or whatever and be calmed or excited by the expansive water view. Walk right down the stairs, along the walkway, down the short steps and go for a swim right on your own beach. No need to leave unless you want variety in your beaches or if it's low tide and you simply must take a dip. The neighbors are all respectful and surprisingly often not around during the day. Outdoor deck with table and chairs and an awning to keep the am sun out and even allow al fresco dining rain or shine. Inside you can still gaze at the water from the comfortable sectional couch with a great 360 turning mosaic coffee table,. Even the cowhide stools swivel. Interesting artwork, many by the owner and his partner and lots of items collected far and wide. Good size kitchen, bathroom and bedroom again decorated with all sorts of interesting things to look at. As I enjoy when I travel, it's that extra experience you get from staying in someone's home rather than just another apt. All what you'd expect and more from the owner's own apartment. And just down the street is Relish, one of the best delis in Town, and Sal's Place undoubtedly the best restaurant in Town. Oldest house in Provincetown is across the street and a cute little private alleyway and wonderful garden to gaze at from your bedroom window. Breakwater is a short walk away. This is the historic West End of Town.

We had a long fall weekend at Barry’s place and it was absolutely perfect! We spent most of our time just enjoying the view. It’s got everything you could need! Can’t wait to come back!
A convenient West-end location, stunning views across P-Town Bay, quick access to dog friendly beaches, and a comfy, well-equipped condo made for a wonderful long term stay.
We enjoyed just sitting on the deck or the couch inside taking in the beautiful view. So relaxing. Cute little coffee shop / bakery a few doors down made breakfast so easy.
Five glorious days watching the tide rise and fall from our living room. Lovely walks to town for dinners. A wonderful old Cape feel with a modern twist. Great kitchen and bath. No parking but there were free spots available nearby ( preseason) and pay options too.
We had a wonderful stay at Barry's home in the West End. It is a spacious and comfortably furnished apartment that is perfect for a couple in an ideal location. The decor is charming and it feels like a real person's vacation home, not a soulless rental flip. It has everything you need and nothing you don't for a perfect Ptown holiday. Can't wait to book it again for next summer!
The apartment is very charming and comfortable in an amazing location. It’s the perfect Provincetown charmer.
I started every morning with a walk on the bay beach with the dogs and a quick trip to Relish for coffee.
The owners were very helpful and responded to my inquiries almost immediately.
Barry’s apartment is far in above what the picture show. The place is so charming and inviting. The views are stunning, the sound of the water make it a wonderful place to just unwind and relax. The location couldn’t have been any better. Walked, biked everywhere.
Was cute place with all the amenities but no blow dryer :((
Shower was a bite complex with the jets. But you could shower
The relaxing ocean sounds made great napping and lunch on the deck.
Perfect location great little deli Relish down the street with tasty backed goods.
Beatiful view also in back bedroom over looking luah english gardens

Beautiful place but missing some
For the most part this place is beautiful and a great location! Had the menitiea we needed for a good stay. I only have two complaints. No smoke detectors as they appeared to have been removed. Also the plexi glass that is floor for deck and ceiling for downstairs appartment is cracked and quite scare to walk on..

Barry’s place is the perfect harborfront stay in Provincetown. The location in the west end is ideal, with the bustle of the central village only 10 minutes away and the quiet of a mostly residential neighborhood. The home is much bigger than the pictures suggest, and the deck is the best location to watch and listen to the surf as the tide comes in. We would gladly stay here for a month! Barry keeps the place well-maintained and provisioned and spotless. Highly recommended host and property.
I’ve led quite a life. After Williams College in the Berkshires I got on my white horse after law school @ Georgetown and hoped to solve the world’s problems .... worked in VISTA, Legal Services, and then the Federal Trade Commission in Seattle, NYC, and Boston. Eventually ended up in Provincetown opening an Italian restaurant called Gallerani’s. Had quite a run there before entering my retired phase. I enjoy running my rentals in the same way I enjoyed the restaurant. It’s a pleasure to give people that extra bit of enjoyment on their vacation thru the unique and special place I have created.
Why they chose this property
Right on the water. Older building that I could modify to retain much of the original character whilst adding my own special touches.
What makes this property unique
Everything you want is right here indoors or out.
