The Story
Hither Hills sits between the state park's dunes and the bluffs west of Montauk proper, a neighborhood of quiet lanes south of the highway where houses pass between generations more often than they reach the market. When one does surface, it tends to look like this: original, unfussy, and priced on its land, its views, and its rights.
14 Taft Drive is a 1973 gambrel kept in its original condition on .65 acres, with ocean views and private beach association access. It is offered plainly as what it is: two thousand square feet of honest structure and one of the more coveted building opportunities in Montauk.
The Opportunity
The house today: three bedrooms, two baths, a fireplace, a full basement, and an attached two car garage under the gambrel roofline. The choice belongs to the buyer, a considered renovation of a time capsule or a ground up build that takes full advantage of the elevation and the ocean beyond.
Either path starts from the same facts: south of the highway, ocean views, beach association rights, and Hither Hills around you.
