Perched on a hill overlooking breathtaking Mill Creek and Mecox Bay, 15 Little Cobb Road offers a rare combination of panoramic waterfront views, privacy, and history in the heart of Water Mill. Set in an X flood zone with no wetlands and fully bulkheaded, this exceptional property enjoys peace of mind along with one of the most beautiful outlooks on the East End. Once home to Toby and Dan Talbot, the pioneering couple behind Manhattan's legendary art-house theaters including the New Yorker and Lincoln Plaza Cinemas, the residence carries a quiet cultural legacy. Here, far from the projection booths of the Upper West Side, the Talbots spent their summers overlooking the same waters that have drawn artists, writers, and filmmakers to the Hamptons for generations. The home is designed for relaxed waterfront living, with a waterside stone pool, brick patio, private floating deck, covered porches, and porte cochere, all positioned to capture the extraordinary setting. Inside, the main level offers warm and inviting living spaces, including a dining room and sunroom each with wood-burning fireplaces, a bright kitchen with breakfast nook, and a private guest suite with screened porch. Upstairs, the primary suite commands sweeping views over the bay, joined by additional guest bedrooms, office space, and flexible third-level rooms, with room to add a full basement if desired. Just minutes from Southampton and Bridgehampton Villages, yet set in a peaceful waterfront enclave, this is a home that reflects the true spirit of Water Mill timeless, elevated, and deeply connected to the landscape. A rare opportunity to own not only a beautiful waterfront property, but a piece of Hamptons cultural history
