Sunsets and Possibilities on Lake Montauk
51 East Lake Drive, Montauk
Didn’t we just love the 80’s? The US Hockey Team kicked it off with the Miracle on Ice. Michael Jackson taught us how to Moonwalk and Cyndi Lauper just wanted to have fun. MTV gave us music videos 24/7 and the expansion of cable TV changed our lives forever. The Exxon Valdez coated the Alaskan shoreline, Chernobyl fouled the Russian skies and the Iran-Contra’s had an affair. We did some Dirty Dancing, had some Risky Business, learned from the other Gecko that greed was good and didn’t have a clue that when the Terminator said he’d be back that he would return as the Governator.

Didn’t we just love the 80’s? The US Hockey Team kicked it off with the Miracle on Ice. Michael Jackson taught us how to Moonwalk and Cyndi Lauper just wanted to have fun. MTV gave us music videos 24/7 and the expansion of cable TV changed our lives forever. The Exxon Valdez coated the Alaskan shoreline, Chernobyl fouled the Russian skies and the Iran-Contra’s had an affair. We did some Dirty Dancing, had some Risky Business, learned from the other Gecko that greed was good and didn’t have a clue that when the Terminator said he’d be back that he would return as the Governator. And in the middle of that seminal decade, a very edgy, 3-bedroom, 2,800 SF modern beach house was built on a breezy shy acre along 150’ of Lake Montauk looking west towards the sunset. Decades later that same residence awaits a new owner to ponder the possibilities. Ripe for renovation? Sure. But with the potential for a nearly 4000 SF house and a waterside spa, an enterprising new owner might create something new and exciting for this gorgeous waterfront acreage. Moor a boat just offshore, canoe, paddle board, go clamming or just kick back and enjoy the views and the sound of the water lapping against the sandy shoreline. And just as the 80’s didn't last forever, neither will this property. With proximity to everything that makes Montauk a world-class destination, ponder the possibilities today.
