This THREE FAMILY consists of a spacious owners triplex with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms spread across the parlor, garden level, and a finished basement. Access to a terrace and an enclosed spacious backyard. Above the owners unit are TWO income generating 3 bedroom 1 bathroom apartments.

On the garden level the master bedroom features an en-suite marble bathroom complete with dual vanity, and a walk in closet. Two spacious bedrooms in the rear of the home with large double closets and very large windows, one of the bedrooms has a small office or mud room that leads out to the backyard. Off the hallway is the third bathroom, a laundry closet and enough room for an extra office area. The finished basement can be used as a recreational room or playroom with plenty of storage space. On the top two floors are two identical 3 bedroom 1 bathroom apartments projected to rent for around $3,200/month each, providing you with enough rental income to cover most of the mortgage! 517 Hancock is ideally situated on a lovely tree lined block in the Stuyvesant Heights section of Bedford Stuyvesant.
