At the apex of Brooklyn Heights, this bespoke, rebuilt mansion waits behind a stately 1870s Italianate façade. Every structural, mechanical, and aesthetic element has been updated to the highest standard while preserving the character and proportions of the neighborhood’s most admired homes. Featured in the January 2026 AD100 issue of Architectural Digest, this house marries architecture by Michael Ingui, interiors by Remy Renzullo, and landscape by Nathalie Pierrepont in a harmonious union.

The brownstone is oriented on a secluded cul-de-sac culminating in cinematic vistas of New York harbor with views over historic gardens filling tall north-facing windows. To the south, a drop in grade means the lush garden terraces enjoy sky-filled outlooks above neighboring rooflines, all the way to the Verrazano Bridge. The exceptionally wide (24’) and deep lot (up to 125’) further enhances privacy and light. A formal French garden emphasizes symmetry and long views, with gravel paths and clipped evergreen parterres. Quietly ordered plantings and layered greenery create intimacy, structure, and a calm visual rhythm.

Behind the restored façade and carved mahogany doors, the structure and envelope have been completely rebuilt: from perimeter foundation to steel framing, leveled floors, and an excavated cellar allowing exceptional ceiling heights. Entirely new mechanical systems from electrical to plumbing to HVAC and security are all state of the art. The building was extended at the garden and parlor floors and clad in antique brick, with a custom glass wall by Riviera Bronze opening to the dining terrace and outdoor kitchen.

Interiors balance luxurious finishes with period-correct detail: rift-sawn white oak floors, new plaster and wood moldings, and restored, working fireplaces with period mantels. The parlor floor's elegant entertaining and dining rooms – with nearly 13’ ceilings – lead down to a large family room and handsome eat-in kitchen, styled with honed marble floors, soapstone island and breakfast bar, Carrara counters, and a statement La Cornue Chateau range with custom hood to match. Below, a tiered home theater, wine cellar, and gym complete the ensemble.

Spacious bedroom suites are complete with custom closets and marble-clad baths. The primary bedroom floor is an oasis, with working fireplaces, two dressing rooms, and an elegant study where French doors open to a south terrace trimmed in bluestone. The primary bath features a dual-head shower room in Calacatta and Nero Marquina slab marble, a heated double vanity, unlacquered brass fixtures by Lefroy Brooks, and free-standing tub by Drummonds.

Additional features include a butler’s pantry, zoned audio, staff rooms, numerous security features, and a fully fitted laundry room to support both daily living and hosting. This is not a typical renovation, but a master reconstruction within a historic envelope. This property seeks a sophisticated buyer who values depth of execution as much as considered design.
