For beach bums and savvy surfers hoping to have a Hamptons house on the horizon, an oceanfront property you can make your own may be the dream find. One for sale on Westhampton Beach Village provides a prime almost two acres to play upon, but it’ll cost you a whopping $11.9 million. This lot is perfectly situated on the coveted Dune Road and has a location those of all interests will love. Right over one of the two bridges connecting the beach to the quintessential Hamptons town, the property is a convenient 0ne-mile walk or bike ride away from shops and restaurants, too.
An unassuming circa-1940s cabana currently basks on the property, which has 163 feet of direct ocean frontage. The one-bedroom, one-and-a-half bath bungalow makes for an airy space to watch the sunrise over the Atlantic Ocean or to retreat to after a long beach day. Likely, however, the property’s next owner may choose to turn the tides. Someone with vision can tear it down and build a new beach house with more space and swankiness. In the meantime, the cottage is the perfect place to relax while developing these plans.
For those with millions burning in their pocket, best not to let the sun set on this opportunity. An easy escape from New York City, Westhampton has all of the benefits of being out east without all of the Montauk Highway traffic. Not to mention, the estate is not far from Gabreski Airport. Enzo Morabito of Douglas Elliman holds the beacfront listing.
