Two motels trade in Montauk as the spring selling season heats up

Could vacationers have new hospitality options in Montauk by this summer? Harrington Property Associates sold Gosman’s Culloden House Motel at 540 West Lake Drive to an LLC for $3.47 million. That property, located next to Montauk’s famous Gosman’s Dock seafood restaurant, sits on about 0.72 acres. Harrington Property Associates also sold 17 Soundview Drive to an LLC for $3.42 million. The property, which is classified as a motel according to PropertyShark records, was owned by Harrington and Roberta Gosman — eldest child of the founders of the eponymous restaurant — who died last May at 85. She had managed Gosman’s Dock, served for seven years on the East Hampton Town Planning Board and was an ardent supporter of local arts. [27east]
