Athena and Victor Calderone once celebrated their three-story Cobble Hill townhouse as a “forever home.” 

Six years later, the couple — Athena the founder of lifestyle brand EyeSwoon and Victor a music producer and DJ — are walking away from the Greek revival at 128 Pacific Street with a tidy profit. 

An unknown buyer purchased the 25-foot-wide townhouse in an off-market deal for $11.8 million, records show, nearly $8 million more than the $4 million the Calderones paid for it in 2015.

At the time, the three-story, 4,000-square-foot property, built in 1900, was divided into four separate units, but the couple combined them into a single-family home. This included a gut renovation and an attempt to restore some of the historic building’s original design features. 

“It was a hell of a project,” Athena told Architectural Digest in 2018. “It nearly broke us — financially and emotionally.”

The living room features original mantles, a handmade chandelier and an open floor plan leading into the dining room. The kitchen boasts marble countertops, open shelving, a square island and bifold glass doors that open to a terrace. The primary suite occupies an entire floor upstairs, including a walk-through closet and a pink-veined marble bathtub. 

Townhouses in Cobble Hill have commanded hefty sums as home prices skyrocketed in the neighborhood during the pandemic, but eight-figure sales are still rare.

A modern townhouse at 57 Wyckoff Street went into contract last June with a $10 million asking price, but ultimately sold for $9.4 million, records show. A 10,000-square-foot carriage house at 177 Pacific Street that went for $15.5 million in 2015 remains by far the priciest home ever sold in the neighborhood.
