A New Townhouse Residence by ECKSTRØM. On site parking. Located in arguably the most sought after block in the Cobble Hill Historic District, this brownstone has been meticulously transformed by ECKSTRØM, celebrating the home's pristine facade and generous proportions while introducing a sophisticated, contemporary aesthetic across its interiors. Through the thoughtful interplay of light, shade, and air, the design creates unexpected and inviting spaces throughout. Enter the parlor floor through a spacious lobby, which flows effortlessly into a warm and inviting living room featuring a functional fireplace. The adjacent sunlit dining room boasts soaring double-height ceilings, creating a sense of grandeur. The chef's kitchen is a culinary dream, with a stunning 20-foot-long Calacatta Viola marble wall that seamlessly integrates countertops, backsplash, and a sculptural island. The kitchen opens up to a serene private landscaped garden, where wall-to-wall sliding doors lead out to a expansive mahogany deck, perfect for year-round indoor-outdoor entertaining. Set within a spacious 23-foot-wide, semi-detached brownstone, this residence offers modern comforts, including an elevator servicing all five floors. Additional highlights include a gym with double-height ceilings, a custom cedar sauna, three private outdoor spaces-including a roof deck with an outdoor kitchen and stunning city views-and a large laundry room. The carefully curated finishes exemplify craftsmanship and refinement: Solid Ash wood plank floors by Dinesen, imported from Denmark. LePage windows throughout. Calacatta Viola marble sourced from Italy. Custom Shinnoki wood cabinetry from Belgium. A premium Gaggenau appliance suite featuring a 48-inch gas cooktop, dual 30-inch ovens, a 48-inch refrigerator and freezer, two sinks with filtered water, a wine fridge, and a built-in plumbed cappuccino maker. The bathrooms and kitchen are fitted with fixtures by Waterworks, Duravit, and Porcelanosa, complemented by natural stone surfaces in Ocean Blue Travertine and Belvedere Leather finishes. A lighting package curated by Hovey Design incorporates a mix of vintage and modern fixtures by Artemide, Teiko, Santa & Cole, and Flos. This comprehensive gut renovation introduces a completely new structure, insulation, roof, windows, and mechanicals, while embracing ECKSTRØM's signature soft minimalist style. The result is a serene home that prioritizes well-being by reducing spaces to their purest forms, crafted with the finest natural materials. In addition, the purchase comes with a permanent easement to the adjacent shared driveway that allows parking at the rear of the property, a rarity in brownstone Brooklyn. Situated on Tompkins Place, a charming, tree-lined block renowned as one of Cobble Hill's most coveted addresses, this residence is just moments from the vibrant offerings of Court and Smith Streets, including markets, parks, eateries, and cafes. 51 Tompkins Place presents a rare, move-in-ready opportunity to own one of the few homes in the area designed and remodeled to this exceptional standard.

Get to Know Cobble Hill

Cobble Hill is a small, laid-back neighborhood comprising 40 blocks in northwest Brooklyn. It offers easy access to the water and sits adjacent to Brooklyn Heights, Boerum Hill, and Carroll Gardens. Most of the action takes place on Court Street, the community’s main artery lined with hip cafes, restaurants and boutiques. The neighborhood was named after a conically shaped hill located at the present-day intersection of Atlantic Avenue, Pacific Street and Court Street. The incline was known as 'Ponkiesbergh' to early Dutch settlers, which directly translates to “Cobble Hill.” Today, Cobble Hill is considered the wealthiest area in Brooklyn, and is often listed alongside upscale Manhattan communities like the Upper East Side and Soho as one of the most desirable locations in the city. Thanks to its well-preserved 19th-century architecture, pristine brownstones and stunning row houses, Cobble Hill has been designated as a historic district.
