795 Hancock Street , Building

Description

795 Hancock Street was originally constructed in 1899. This newly renovated home is the perfect combination of high-end finishes, modern technology, and impeccable details, an honorable salute to its past. This townhouse is a two-family brownstone that features 5 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 powder rooms, a large parlor deck, and an expansive backyard garden. From wide-plank white oak floors to original doors and exposed brick, attention to detail can be found throughout this well-appointed home. As you enter the owner's three-bedroom duplex, you are greeted by a welcoming foyer and an original door. Stepping into the parlor, you realize the breadth of space as the 10.5-foot ceilings let the light radiate throughout the open floor plan. To the left, a formal living room area with a wood-burning fireplace and beautiful molding offers a great space for entertaining. To the right, a thoughtfully designed powder room. In the back, your dining and open kitchen features a three-seat island, custom cabinetry, and quartz countertops. With a farmhouse sink and a full complement of appliances including an integrated Fisher Paykel 36" French door refrigerator and Wolf five-burner stove this kitchen is a chef's dream. Upstairs you find three bedrooms and two full baths. The elegant primary bedroom faces the beautiful treelined street and features two windows and a large closet. The primary bath is adorned with marble tiled floors, a tasteful double vanity, and a glass-enclosed shower. In the hall, you pass the marble-tiled second bathroom and two comfortable bedrooms. From the built-in sound system to the restored fireplace mantel, this home offers a perfect blend of new technology and original charm. The private basement can be accessed through the garden level and is finished with textured tile floors and a powder room. It can easily be transformed into a playroom, home office, or artist studio. The separate garden floor two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit can serve as an income-producing property or in-law apartment. This masterfully re-imagined townhouse is located in the heart of Bedford-Stuyvesant. You are moments away from great dining establishments such as L'Antagoniste, Chez Oscar, Saraghina's, and Marian's as well as several local parks that feature playgrounds, basketball courts, and tennis courts.
