Property Description for 8 Hancock Street, 1

Nice and Easy This parlour level apartment has high ceilings, amazing light, hardwood floors and the perfect location on the Bedford Stuyvesant and Clinton Hill Border. Entering the apartment, you’ll appreciate the easy layout —the living room in the front, dining area and open plan kitchen in the middle and bedrooms in the quiet rear of the home. The living room overlooks quiet Hancock Street. The dining area has exposed brick painted white and is large enough for a 4top dining table. The open plan kitchen has stainless appliances including dishwasher. The two bedrooms can fit queen size beds —or given the ceilings are so high, you have space to easily accommodate a loft bed to maximize the floor space. Both bedrooms have nice size closets with overhead storage for off season clothing. And YES …the black and white tiled bathroom has a tub and shower. The location of the home is superb. The A/C and Shuttle trains are around the corner. The block itself is sleepy quiet…yet, you have the hustle and bustle of the ever popular Franklin Ave less than 100 yards away. Here you’ll find a bar, restaurant, and club scene that could easily have you out every night of the month. Local favorites include: Within a couple of blocks you’ll also find boutiques, artisanal supermarket, gym, banks, park, pharmacy, urgent care and a whole host of other services. Showing Sat & Sun 12-1.

Quick Profile

Known for its historic brownstones and tight-knit enclave, Bed-Stuy has increasingly left behind its early reputation for being a “bedroom community” and transcended into a highly desirable neighborhood. 

Distinct for its aesthetic, it is populated with ornate buildings characterized by cornices, friezes, finials, fluting and other marks of classic architecture. Built up during the period from 1870 to 1900, its historic district runs to the north of Jefferson Avenue, to the east of Malcolm X Boulevard and to the west of Tompkins Avenue. 

At one point known as “Brooklyn’s Little Harlem,” the shape of the area has shifted toward attracting a wider demographic of people thanks to the influx of bars, restaurants, antique furniture stores and vintage boutiques. More police enforcement paired with the decline of the crack epidemic at the beginning of the 2000s also opened the door for increased development, as well as the occupation of formerly abandoned buildings and spaces.
