51 Tompkins Place, Brooklyn, (Cobble Hill), NY, 11231

A New Townhouse Residence by ECKSTROM

Originally built in 1899, this historic Cobble Hill brownstone has been meticulously transformed by ECKSTROM in collaboration with the esteemed architect studio of Ryall Sheridan Carroll. The renovation celebrates the home''s generous proportions while introducing a sophisticated, contemporary aesthetic. Through the thoughtful interplay of light, shade, and air, the design creates unexpected and inviting spaces throughout.

The main level features a bright and cozy sitting area with a functional fireplace, seamlessly flowing into a sunlit dining room with soaring double-height ceilings. Adjacent is a chef''s kitchen showcasing a striking 20-foot-long Calacatta Viola marble wall that integrates countertops, backsplash, and a sculptural island, all overlooking a private landscaped garden. Wall-to-wall sliding doors open to a large mahogany deck, just a step down from the dining area, allowing for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining year-round.

Set within a spacious 23-foot-wide, semi-detached brownstone, this residence offers modern comforts, including an elevator servicing all 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:

Ash wood planks 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 new structure, insulation, roof, windows, and mechanicals, while embracing ECKSTROM''''''''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.
