The following link should take you to an excerpt from the book "Walking Brooklyn" by Adrienne Onofri, which says the now-demolished Roebling house in Brooklyn Heights was on the block of Columbia Heights near Orange Street.

Link to the excerpt:

Washington Roebling lived at 110 Columbia Heights, which no longer exists. 124 Columbia Heights is the current address of the building that sits on the site where 110 Columbia Heights once stood.

I have some photos and video of the current location on my blog post, Washington Roebling's Brooklyn Bridge:
