Steve Raia, a partner in the Il Mulino restaurant group, which included a Wainscott restaurant, recently sold a shingled traditional residence on an acre in East Hampton Village for $6.2 million.

Built in 2011, the home at 61 Toilsome Lane is 5,400 square feet above grade with an additional 2,100 square feet of living space in the finished lower level. Through the mahogany front door, an open floor plan includes double living rooms with 6-inch walnut flooring and wood-burning fireplaces; an eat-in kitchen with a La Cornue range, double Sub-Zero refrigerators, three dishwashers, refrigerator drawers and 2-inch marble countertops; and two sets of folding mahogany glass doors that fully open along to the grounds. A three-season room, an en-suite bedroom, a half bath and a laundry/mudroom round out the first level.

Up a custom curved staircase are three en-suite bedrooms, an office with a gas fireplace and custom cabinetry, a hallway beverage center and a gathering nook. And there’s the owners’ suite, which offers views of the mature landscaped property, two walk-in closets, two full bathrooms and a laundry area.

A sixth bedroom is in the lower level, which also has a full bathroom, a television/lounge area, a wine cellar and a hot yoga room.

Outdoors, there is a dining area with a built-in pizza oven, fireplace and barbecue, plus an 18-foot-by-45-foot heated saltwater gunite pool with a separate spa, a waterfall and a 20-foot-by-10-foot sundeck. The pool house has a half bath and an outdoor shower.

Also among the amenities are radiant heat flooring, a three-car garage, a generator, and retractable awnings.

According to Blockshopper, Mr. Raia purchased the property in 2009 for $1.1 million. The buyer was Merle Estate LLC, and the deal closed March 10, according to The Real Estate Report Inc.

Debbie Brenneman, Charlie Esposito and Michael Esposito of The Corcoran Group had the listing.
