Montauk — where buildable land is scarce, and waterfront properties are highly desirable. The new listing at 16 and 18 Wills Point Road is exceptional because it gives the owner control over the area.
The property, about 2.5 acres in Culloden Point, has views of Fort Pond Bay. It includes a 6,000-square-foot home and a lot where you can build. This allows the future owner to shape the property as they see fit.

According to Greg Gould, a listing agent with Hedgerow Exclusive, this Montauk property combines immediate enjoyment with long-term planning. The current home offers size, views, and privacy, while the second lot offers choices that are hard to find on the waterfront. This allows the next owner to create a lasting property in a location where land is increasingly rare.
“This is one of those uncommon Montauk opportunities that blends immediate enjoyment with long-term vision,” Gould said. “The existing residence offers scale, views, and privacy today, while the second parcel introduces flexibility that simply doesn’t exist in most waterfront offerings. This allows the next owner to shape a lasting estate in a location where land of this caliber has become increasingly scarce.”
A Home with Bay Views
The main house at 16 Wills Point Road is on 1.4 acres and faces west over Fort Pond Bay. This location is ideal for enjoying Montauk’s famous sunsets.
Inside, the house has over 6,000 square feet, five bedrooms, and high ceilings. The large windows provide water views from most rooms. Several private decks extend the living space outdoors, offering views of the bay.
The walk-out lower level can be finished to add about 1,000 square feet of living space. Depending on the owner’s needs, this area could be used for additional bedrooms, a media room, or a wellness area. The upper-level studio with a full bath can serve as a guest space, office, or artist’s studio.
Outside, there is a heated 46-by-22-foot saltwater pool in the backyard, surrounded by open sky and gorgeous landscaping.

What makes this property stand out is the lot next door at 18 Wills Point Road.
This adjacent lot turns the purchase into a compound, which can change over time based on the owner’s ideas.
A buyer could combine the two lots to expand the property, possibly adding a tennis court, guest house, or pool pavilion. The land could also support another home, allowing for multigenerational living or a separate guest house.
Another option is to leave the lot undeveloped to ensure that the bay views and privacy are protected.
Dominic Couzens, a listing team member, says that it is rare to find a property where you can add value while protecting your water views. This dual-lot property provides security for future development, allowing the next owner to control what happens. If you choose to build on the second lot and sell it, you could recover a large portion of your initial investment while ensuring your views from the main house remain unobstructed.
“It’s so rare to find a property where you can create value while protecting your own water views,” said Couzens. “Beyond the amazing Montauk lifestyle achieved, this dual-lot offering provides future development security, allowing the next owner to control the narrative. If you choose to build on the second parcel and sell it strategically, with new development prices in the double digits, you’re potentially recouping a significant portion of your initial investment while guaranteeing no one can ever totally obstruct your sightlines from the main residence.”
Montauk Living
The location provides easy access to Montauk’s outdoor activities. A nearby bay access point allows for kayaking and paddleboarding in Fort Pond Bay. There is also a 174-acre nature preserve with walking and hiking trails. Montauk’s Atlantic Ocean beaches are only a six-minute drive away.
Montauk Harbor, with its fishing fleet, marinas, and restaurants, is less than two miles away, along with the town’s commercial center.
The house at 16 Wills Point Road can be purchased alone or with the neighboring lot at 18 Wills Point Road to create a full compound.
In a town where undeveloped land is increasingly rare, this property offers something unique: the ability to decide what happens next.
