When the video started, I thought they were showing us the “before” photos and I got tears in my eyes that anyone would get rid of it. By the end I was crying tears of joy. Your house is my idea of a dream house. Thanks for keeping it just the way it is.
John Derian’s shop in NYC is as amazing as this house, he is totally authentic, and has created his own beautiful world, which is the most difficult thing to do. Thank you for the tour….
I love Provincetown and have visited John Derian’s shop several times without realizing that he lives in the building. It feels like a lovely little sanctuary for odd and beautiful objects you’ll never see anywhere else. How marvelous that he and the house found each other. He honors its history and treats it with such respect and gratitude. Thanks for this glimpse of his home and the sources of his inspiration.
👏 Bravo for not murdering this home's history and character. ❤ The wallpaper fragments are an evolving work of art - time ticking to appreciation in a functional building. 👍from 🇬🇧
I absolutely love that he didn’t do any major renovations!! So many beautiful historic homes in this country are being renovated, and they often lose the things that make them unique in the process. I have so much respect for anyone that recognizes the beauty in old homes and chooses to preserve them even if that means foregoing some modern conveniences.
What a stunning house. I am so pleased that you have kept everything. It speaks history and I imagine that you can sit and imagine so many events in the house. Utterly beautiful.
There is something very heartening about leaving an old home as is. Most of us can't do it, but this talented gentleman has done it really well! Thank you for this lovely tour! ❤
What a treat. Very welcoming, calm. I am a fan of decoupage, especially his. A home that maintained the charm of decades and was ready for him to work his magic.
I could watch it over and over again. Thank you..⛵️🐚 Just beautiful...🌊 beautifully decorated with all the seaside ocean 🐚decorations and pretty creamy white furniture....🌊 I love old houses
John Derian just has the magic touch for a home like this. I would want to paint and update a little more but then I don't have his magic touch. Lovely.
The most charming house I have ever seen!! this is what real talent gets you!! A dreamy home even without costly renovations! If I lived even remotely nearby I would be John's customer to his shop and I would beg him to have a small glimpse of his home.
A lovely home. It's everything I see when visiting his shops in the East Village, NYC. I even did a quick video of it around Halloween time. So much charm and personality.
Love that you are embracing its age. Sally Quinn took the same approach with Grey Gardens. I do the same with my 1890 Queen Anne. Regards from Indiana!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOh! This past Saturday in Provincetown, I saw the shop sign and was I drawn to it but also so confused, but I kept looking at the sign for some reason, trying to understand, perhaps was it an interior design business or a shop. And now I see the same shop sign this video! Such a missed treasure! Will visit next time!
The house is magical no doubt and this guy was clearly meant for the house. The fact that he didn't renovate or really update the home speaks volumes. Nice to see someone who loves and respects his home.
Oh my... what a stunning story! I'm really glad that John kept the house's old style... it's so full of "spirit", it seems to have it's own personality, with a true lifetime story. I really loved the video!
From a practical side, my one concern is flaking paint that might have lead. If there are no small children or pets, it's probably fine. It is definitely a beachy vintage look, and I prefer that to lots of bright colors and 'big' patterns that might work in a modern space. I grew up in a Mid-Century home, but haven't lived in a house with a dishwasher or even a garbage disposal since I 'left home'. Even houses from the 1920s/1930s were solidly made, and have fun features like built-ins, milk doors, and mirrored medicine cabinets above the kitchen sink. His house feels welcoming and cozy, with his collections and fun antique art. I'm always a fan of 19th Century style botanical and scenic images. Nice video for the late summer.
I somehow found John's work and this amazing home years ago, and it was such a pleasure to watch this video and see it featured on one of my favorite magazine's youtube channel! This house is a treasure, and I'm glad you are preserving this history and showing us how incredibly gorgeous age can be.
I love and talk to my house too. When ever I was away it would call out for me - and I’d send it reiki too, which I know has healed some of its wounds ❤️
Really lovely house. I love your way of respecting the old. The wallpaper fragments are magical. Imagine when they were newly applied, how excited those living in the house must have felt. Thank you for sharing your home. I've been to your shop in the village in Gotham ( New York). amazing energy.
So beautiful, what a different aspect, allowing a house to reflect its history. We usually love to change things and yet this home was waiting for you. It has a creepy feel, kind of making you look into the past. 😊
Finally! Someone who is confident enough to live with beautiful history!
You make an excellent point!!

Beautiful house and respective owner. It's lovely to see people thrive in their element. He clearly loves and respects his home.
What a kind, thoughtful and creative man. It is inspiring when a home is the direct reflection of its owner/tenant.
Most of us would have fixed it up, but I respect his decision not to and it's charming. He really is the King of Decoupage! I love his work.
I think he did fix up major parts of it - like the '70s bathroom he mentioned.

I’ve never loved a house more than this one. I watch at least 2 home tours a day, adding up to thousands I’m sure! This is so utterly charming.
hands down this is one of the most gorgeous homes I have ever seen ..............a testament to the owner and owners past .....perfection
Simply outstanding that he's been able to maintain the integrity of that home. Good for him.
I wish we had more of this type of care for the old houses, it’s so authentic & beautiful.
Best home tour by far. Exceptional taste of homeowner

Just beautiful. Thank you so much for inviting us in. ❤
I wouldn’t change a thing.
Great vacation house. Perfectly imperfect.
I love this one especially, it feels like a proper lived in home and one that isn't afraid of it looking old and wonderfu
What a stunning house. I am so pleased that you have kept everything. It speaks history and I imagine that you can sit and imagine so many events in the house. Utterly beautiful.
John Derian is very interesting, his home reflects who he truly is…beautiful. He’s a collector and it definitely shows.
Loved his atheistic. So glad he kept the originality of the home.
@user-zk5rt3gb3e Thank you, Karen
Maybe he’s an atheist
Love John Derian. He matches well to his home.
I have always loved this house in Provincetown and wondered what it was like inside. Thank you for showing the interior. It is fantastic.
I've seen this house many times and I just adore it.

It is so sweet that he actually thanks his house whenever he leaves it.
What a charming man and a charming house
I love your world. Thank you for sharing!
This was my absolute favorite house - ever! Perfect 🩷🐚🧡🏡.
A lovely home. It's everything I see when visiting his shops in the East Village, NYC. I even did a quick video of it around Halloween time. So much charm and personality.
Absolutely charming. This makes my heart go pitter patter.
💜💜💜 👌🏻House & Garden always shows the best houses wish it was showing for longer not just seven minutes 😏
This house is everything. Lived in and loved, what more do you need.

One word ...........charming
Lovely house. Thank you for the video
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING❤

Really, … good for you. So lovely. So Cape-ie too. ❤ I love where we live! thank you to your house and you.
This is pure beauty
This is really lovely. It shows he has a deeper love and connection to his home, treating its flaws and characteristics as human.
John has fully embraced this house just as it is and in doing so has kept the history in such a unique way - fascinating ❤❤❤
The house is magical no doubt and this guy was clearly meant for the house. The fact that he didn't renovate or really update the home speaks volumes. Nice to see someone who loves and respects his home.
I have friends who live down the street from you. I’ve been to your shop many times. It’s always been one of my favorite homes on Commercial Street !
Match made in ..paradise! This house, and John's collection and taste, were destined to be together.
Those soft furnishings!
Perfection! Thank you for sharing your home ~ truly inspiring! 😍👏🏻
One of the most enjoyable episodes and nicest houses featured in your channel to me personally. Thank you
I could not spend more than 10-minutes in that home, but am very glad to know that its owner enjoys it just as it is.
Always nice to see Mr. Derian.
Perfect in its wabi-sabi-ness! Love, love, love.
Beautiful film H&G.
Whimsical and charming. It’s simply beautiful!
Oh my... what a stunning story! I'm really glad that John kept the house's old style... it's so full of "spirit", it seems to have it's own personality, with a true lifetime story. I really loved the video!
wow incredible place yet again
Wow! Truly beautiful, the VW is the cherry on top 😍
How wonderful to find a spot to enjoy and hang out where you grew up. A lovely place to think on old memories and create new.
I want to visit his shop….he is so stinking cool….Thankyou for sharing your home with us…hugs carolyn from Columbus Georgia

I love John. I think he is just fabulous. He inspires me to do what I want.
When I die and 'go to heaven' this is what it will feel like. Thanks for the preview!
I love the old and chippiness of it all......so comfy and cozy.

Greetings from Amsterdam finally I see someone with the same taste for decorating ❤️❤️❤️✋
I love this. Just cool to see someone keeping the history of the interior.
I love this H&G. I wish that they make a video once a week!😔
Perfectly imperfect! Love it.
So beautiful! Always so happy to see a video from you guys, they are so thoughtfully made
What a wonderful home ..
I love and talk to my house too. When ever I was away it would call out for me - and I’d send it reiki too, which I know has healed some of its wounds ❤️
That's how I've always wanted to live. John has done a good deed by that house it's just magnificent.
My favorite so far! I would have done the same thing to a resting home. Beautiful and inspiring!
Entrancing is the perfect description. Plus the Target Mushroom pillow sighting!
Utterly charming, I could spend hours looking at all the incredible detail. Thank you for showing us around 😊
Such an interesting home. Thanks for sharing you Cape Cod home.
Lovely tour!
Great space. Love the well worn fabrics and colors. Thanks for the tour.
This seems so comfortable! I love the wallpaper fragments, especially the blue; I love the verdure pattern so much.
I do not know this man but I love him so much
It's so beautiful just as it is , it doesn't need any messing with
Like the old floral wallpaper and that you don't have air con. I love having natural breezes in a house.
I love his house! As a lifelong Cape-goer, though, I’ve never heard of or seen the faux stone floors, though. So curious.
Isn't it amazing how each home has different stories to tell? 😍
I love John Derian's aesthetic and I treasure his books.
Well, that is unusual…in a good way! That house must love you, John Derian!
Third owner?! How wonderful! The house did find him…he’s perfect to take care of it…love the house and that round island…
