ed Top Farm, the former Hamptons estate of late music mogul Seymour Stein, is now listed for $15 million. The 2.9‑acre property at 348 Wickapogue Road, just outside Southampton Village, features a 10‑bedroom, 7‑bath main house covering 8,720 sq ft. Built in 1895 as a clapboard farmhouse, it was renovated in 1997 by Southampton architect John David Rose. The home showcases vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, custom millwork, French doors, and pendant lights. A stained‑glass foyer sets a grand tone, while the chef’s kitchen is bright and inviting. Multiple wood‑burning fireplaces adorn the living, dining, and bedroom areas. The formal dining room includes a splash of red and a second fireplace. Bedrooms feature curved walls, fireplaces, and ample natural light.
The estate also contains a 1,456‑sq‑ft guest house with three bedrooms and two baths, and a detached garage that houses a 1,306‑sq‑ft apartment with three bedrooms. Outdoor amenities include a pool, paddock, and equestrian facilities, surrounded by specimen trees, a picket fence, and privet hedges. Aerial shots highlight the property’s layout and abundant light.
Stein, co‑founder of Sire Records and a key figure in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, signed artists such as Madonna, the Ramones, Talking Heads, and Pretenders. He died in 2023 at age 80. His former wife, punk pioneer Linda Stein, was a prominent real‑estate broker before her tragic death in 2007. Listing broker Michael Schultz of Bespoke Real Estate notes that the home carries Stein’s legacy of vision and cultural impact.
