Sunnymead Estate Trades Hands For Nearly $14 Million

In the late 1800s, craftsmanship was considered an art form — and the Sunnymead estate in Southampton is a living example of that legacy.

Located at 41 Gin Lane, this home remains one of the most iconic on the street after years of renovations by seller Kathy Ruland preserved its late Victorian style while integrating first-class amenities and cutting-edge technology of today.

Two years after John David Rose Architect completed the project in 2019, the 9,000-square-foot, six-bedroom, six-bath estate sold for $13.75 million to an unnamed buyer on November 3, according to the Real Estate Report Inc., listed with Terry Thompson and Michaela and Paulina Keszler of Douglas Elliman.

From crown moldings to marble countertops and custom floorboards, the old world charm is ever present with a modern take on this village institution, designed by renowned architect Robert H. Robertson. The home’s layout, which is spread over four floors — all accessible by elevator — is oriented in a way to maximize natural light, and its asymmetry is typical of Queen Anne-style influences.

Through the oversized Dutch front door, the estate is home to a cutting-edge kitchen with La Cornue range, marble countertops and lux butler pantry, a formal dining room, and full outdoor kitchen overlooking a heated Gunite pool and pool house with a fireplace. The lower level includes a state-of-the-art theater, oversized wine cellar and gym.
