Just one block from the ocean in coveted Hither Hills, this 1950s vintage Montauk cottage has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its original charm while incorporating modern updates. Surrounded by beach grasses, lavender, and hydrangeas, the setting feels straight out of a storybook-yet it's just moments from Montauk town and only a two-minute walk to one of Montauk's most beautiful ocean beaches. Enter through a welcoming Dutch door into a practical entry space ideal for beach gear and storage. The updated layout now features a private new one-bedroom, exposed wood beams, and a cozy living area with sunlit window seating. The enclosed front porch offers additional living space with a queen-size pullout sofa and a dedicated desk/work area-perfect for guests or remote work. The open kitchen includes a propane stove, and the stylish modern bathroom is complemented by a convenient outdoor shower for rinsing off after the beach. A ladder leads to a lofted nook with a queen-size bed, providing additional sleeping space. Outside, the private back deck is wrapped in lush landscaping and mature trees, creating a peaceful sense of seclusion. The detached shed has been reimagined as an outdoor artist's studio, complete with a vintage desk and chair and a couch, making it an inviting retreat for reading, relaxing, or working. The property is tucked behind private hedging, with a beautiful wooden gate opening to a driveway and ample parking. As part of the rental, two beach cruiser bikes and two stand-up paddleboards (SUPs) are available for guests to enjoy. Renovations completed in 2026 include a new bedroom addition, a freshly painted interior throughout, and all-new furnishings-offering effortless, updated living just moments from the ocean. New Photos to be added end of February.*
