House: 100 Pierrepont Street

Set on a tranquil, tree-lined street in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, 100 Pierrepont Street is a mint condition, single-family townhouse that recently underwent a complete gut renovation and redesign by Architect Jose Ramirez. This historic Italianate brownstone dates back to 1857, and was originally home to prominent shipping merchant Henry B. Cromwell, founder of several successful steamship lines in the mid-19th century.

At 20’-wide and 5 stories (plus finished basement), 100 Pierrepont Street offers over 7,000 square feet of interior living space (5,900 above-grade square feet). Featuring a continuous brownstone facade, sunken mansion entry, and a console cornice, this grand and stately home consists of five bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and two powder rooms. Gracious ceiling heights, oversized windows, and a thoughtfully placed skylight flood the house with light throughout.

Luxurious features include an elevator servicing all floors from the basement to the roof, a tiered and landscaped garden, a roof terrace with sweeping views of Brooklyn and New York Harbor, an open layout chef’s kitchen, a full floor master suite with dressing room and marble bath, and wide plank, white oak floors throughout the home. This luxurious abode is also outfitted with new mechanicals and smart lighting and HVAC systems.

Conveniently located only minutes from Manhattan and steps from local schools, charming restaurants and cafes, and the famed Brooklyn Heights Promenade, 100 Pierrepont Street is a stunning townhome designed for entertainment and comfort. In New York City’s first historic district, this turnkey townhouse offers a rare blend of luxury and historic charm.
