    451 Hancock Street is a handsome and meticulously cared-for two-family townhouse in Stuyvesant Heights — recently renovated and move-in ready. Parlor Floor The parlor floor is open and inviting — high ceilings, generous proportions, and lovely southern light with a layout that flows naturally and opens onto a substantial dining terrace that leads to a stunning backyard. An exceptional kitchen anchors the space: large center island with overhang seating, ZLine six-burner pro-style gas range with vented hood, stacked wall oven and microwave, a 42” French door refrigerator, and an oversized porcelain farmhouse sink. Considered additions — among them &Tradition Flower Pot pendants and a Noguchi lamp — bring warmth and character to this level of the home. Garden Level Two spacious bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bath and heated floors. The primary bath is impressive — five fixtures, including a glass-enclosed shower with rain head, separate floating soaking tub and double sinks. The primary bedroom opens directly onto a striking two-tiered rear yard, landscaped and featuring bluestone pavers, pea gravel, and an irrigation system. Soaring perimeter trees give the yard summer shade without taking up an inch of usable space. Lower Level A genuinely livable floor, fully renovated with care — the quality carries through in every detail, from the red oak rift-cut wooden slat staircase to a beautifully finished bathroom with Portola Roman Clay walls, Antigua marble, and Nasco ceramic tile. This level of the home has been comprehensively waterproofed — sump pump with battery backup, French drain, and waterproofed walls — and features a dedicated office, side-by-side washer/dryer with connected sink, and custom built-in storage. Top Floor A well-appointed rental apartment that most recently generated $3,650 per month. The primary bedroom is sizeable and the living room comfortable, with a second room that serves easily as a home office, guest room, or den. The four-fixture bath has a double vanity and glass-enclosed shower, storage is ample, and the unit has its own washer/dryer. The apartment will be delivered vacant and could readily be incorporated into the main house if desired. Additional Solar panels provide meaningful savings on electricity. Tax Class 1 protected. Ring cameras installed at the front and rear of the house. Kasa Wi-Fi-enabled light switches controllable via mobile phone. Ductless mini-split heating and cooling. Location Moments from Herbert Von King Park and surrounded by an excellent array of neighborhood staples — such as Saison Bakery, Saraghina, LunÀtico, Selune, BKB Brooklyn Brasserie, Ler Lers, Daphne’s, Barb’s, Sincerely Tommy, dear friend books, and Manny’s Wine Shop. A and C express service at Utica Avenue; C train at Kingston-Throop. The information herein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable.
