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. Nearby public transportation includes the A/C or J/M trains and the Halsey St B26, and JFK is a short 20-minute drive.
