    What's special

    Amazing opportunity awaits your creativity and design skills. This four story, three family, brick townhouse is located in historic Stuyvesant Heights on tree-lined Hancock street, arguably the most beautiful in the neighborhood. This home is currently configured as an owner's duplex with a lush garden and two income producing 1.5 bedroom apartments on the third and fourth floors. Many of its details are still intact, including ceiling molding, medallions, shutters, and banisters. Already in great shape and living condition, you can choose to restore the original beauty of this Brooklyn classic at your own pace as you put your own touch on the finishes while still collecting rent from the upper floor apartments. 542 Hancock is conveniently located on a prime Bedford Stuyvesant block between Lewis and Stuyvesant and is just a few minutes away from the A/C Utica Ave subway stop on Fulton Street. Walk through Fulton Park and afterwards go to some of the beloved neighborhood staples like Sincerely Tommy, L'Antagoniste, Cafe Luntico, Eugene and Co, Bed-Vyne Brew and Cocktail, Peaches and Saraghina.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
