Jobs Lane, Bridgehampton
Jobs Lane in Bridgehampton runs south over Sam's Creek to the Town's Mecox Beach. It is a different road from Jobs Lane in Southampton Village.
Jobs Lane in Bridgehampton ends at the ocean. The Town's Mecox Beach is at 535 Jobs Lane, the road's southern end. On the way, the road crosses a bridge over Sam's Creek. Near the beach, Dune Road runs west from it and Rose Way runs east. The road lies in unincorporated Town of Southampton territory.
This is not the Jobs Lane in Southampton Village. That one is a village street near the Rogers Memorial Library and the original Parrish Art Museum building, which opened there in 1898. The two roads share a name and nothing else: different government, different zoning, different market. Records searches and comparable sales have to be filtered by hamlet. The Southampton Village street belongs with Southampton Village.
The beach at the end
Mecox Beach is a Town beach facility. Season permits for Town residents and non-residents are accepted. From May 15 to September 15, a permit or a paid daily pass is required to park. Weekday daily passes, excluding holidays, are sold through the Town's parking app. The Town restricts summer daytime parking on Jobs Lane itself from the Sam's Creek bridge south, on the Dune Road spur, and on Rose Way.
For owners on the southern part of the road, that means summer beach traffic passes the gate. It also means a public beach at the end of the road. A Jobs Lane address does not create a private beach right. Fee frontage, deeded access and public access are separate facts; see private roads and beach rights.
Coastal and water conditions
Jobs Lane crosses Sam's Creek and ends at the ocean beach. Parcels near the creek and in the southern section need a full coastal and wetland review: FEMA flood zone, tidal and freshwater wetland lines, dune setbacks, and, for anything near the beach, the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area (the state-mapped zone where new building and some rebuilding need a special permit). Parcels further north are farther from those systems, but the survey should still show any wetland on or next to the lot.
The oceanfront-property guide and the Mecox Bay guide cover the regional framework.
Buyer diligence
- Confirm the hamlet and tax-map district first, so that records and sales from Southampton Village's Jobs Lane do not contaminate the file.
- Place the parcel relative to the Sam's Creek bridge and the beach.
- Get the survey with wetland, flood-zone and dune lines.
- Confirm Town or Trustee permits for any structure toward the beach or creek.
- Pull the sanitary record for the house and any pool house or cottage.
Nearby lanes
Ocean Road is Bridgehampton's other main road to the ocean, to the east. Pauls Lane, Halsey Lane and Mecox Road form the Mecox grid to the north and west. Flying Point Road reaches the other side of the Mecox inlet from Water Mill. Hamlet context: Bridgehampton.

Flood and coastal exposure
36 of 63 residential and vacant parcels sit in FEMA’s 1% annual-chance flood area (zones VE, AE, A or AO), where a mortgage from a federally regulated or insured lender requires flood insurance on the building.
| FEMA zone | Parcels | What it means for an owner |
|---|---|---|
| VE — coastal high-hazard (wave action) | 26 | Ocean-facing land exposed to storm waves of 3 feet or more. Flood insurance is required with a federally backed mortgage and costs the most here. A new or substantially rebuilt house must stand on piles or columns, with its lowest structural beam at or above the base flood elevation, and only breakaway walls below. |
| AE — 1% annual-chance flood, base flood elevation set | 10 | A 1% chance of flooding in any year (about 26% over a 30-year mortgage). Flood insurance is required with a federally backed mortgage. A new or substantially improved house must have its lowest floor at or above the base flood elevation shown on the map; local codes can require more. |
| X (shaded) — 0.2% annual-chance flood | 14 | A 0.2% annual chance of flooding (the “500-year” flood). Flood insurance is not federally required, but it is usually available at lower rates and a lender may still ask for it. |
| X — minimal flood hazard | 13 | Outside the mapped flood areas. Flood insurance is not federally required. Flooding can still happen from heavy rain and drainage. |
Loans. In zones VE, AE, A and AO, any mortgage made, insured or bought by a federally regulated lender, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA or VA requires flood insurance on the building for the life of the loan. A lender can require it in zone X as well. A cash buyer is not required to insure.
Premiums. Since 2021 the National Flood Insurance Program prices each house on its own features (elevation, distance to water, cost to rebuild), so the zone is a starting point, not the price. Private flood policies are an alternative. An elevation certificate is the document every insurer asks for.
Renovating. In the 1% flood area, if work on a house costs half or more of the building’s market value, or a storm damages it that badly, the whole house must be brought up to current flood rules, which usually means raising it. Plan a renovation budget against that line.
