Welcome to 74 Commercial Street, Provincetown's iconic Octagon House--a rare architectural treasure built in 1850 by whaling master Robert Soper. Steeped in history yet seamlessly designed for contemporary living, this exceptional property offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Provincetown's maritime legacy. Set on a corner lot in the heart of the coveted West End, directly across from beach access, the home features expansive harbor and Long Point views, along with a rooftop deck offering one of the highest vantage points in the area. The versatile 3-family layout includes multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces, with bedrooms on all three levels, perfect for privacy or hosting guests. Meticulously rebuilt and thoughtfully maintained, the home blends timeless history with modern elegance, boasting high ceilings, exquisite craftsmanship, and premium finishes throughout. A pristine front yard adds unexpected privacy, while the distinctive octagonal design--a testament to Soper's innovative storm-resistant vision--makes this residence one of Cape Cod's most remarkable landmarks.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
