Building & Unit Features
Built in 1882 by famed Manhattan Architect John G. Prague, 153 Hancock Street is the epitome of Brooklyn Brownstone luxury. Equipped with all the comforts of modern living, including HVAC and solar panels, and dripping with historic architectural detail--pocket doors, original shutters, six marble fireplace mantels, wood and plaster molding and more, this five-bedroom, three-and-a-half bathroom, single-family, 4-story home, is simply stunning.
Grandeur, character, and charm flow effortlessly through each level. The expansive double parlor is graced with original wood floors with inlay borders and high ceilings throughout. South-facing, the living room greets the sun through the double-angled bay windows, and the towering pier mirror is the room's focal point. The rear parlor is breathtaking with the floor-to-ceiling double bay window taking center stage. Elegantly designed, the powder room is thoughtfully tucked off the side of the room for convenience.
On the third level, you'll find the primary suite, which can also be used as two separate bedrooms. The primary bedroom is perfectly positioned at the rear for a restful night's sleep. Custom cabinetry lines the walk-in closet and leads to the home office which is full-width and bathed in natural light. At the top level, there are three additional bedrooms, one full bathroom, a laundry room and ample storage space.
Last but not least, the heart of the home resides on the garden level where the dedicated dining room sets the stage for memorable gatherings, adorned with waist-high wainscoting and one of the six marble fireplace mantels. The spacious eat-in kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring a Capital Culinarian Range, Quartzite countertops, classic cabinetry, a dishwasher, stainless steel appliances, and direct access to the tranquil backyard, perfect for hosting summer gatherings. The garden bath features heated floors, a soaking tub, and a vanity with a double-thick Calcutta Gold marble countertop.
153 Hancock is ideally located in the Bedford Historic District. Just steps away from the A/C express train stop at Nostrand Ave and the Long Island Railroad, and surrounded by some of the best that Bed Stuy has to offer such as Bunny, Le Paris Dakar, Peaches Hot House, Peace & Riot Alive Herbal, Bed-Vyne Brew, and much, much more.
