Property Summary
Description
280 HANCOCK STREET is an incredible Landmark gem in Brooklyn's coveted Bedford Landmark District built circa 1891 by local neighborhood Architect/Builder Jeremiah D. McAuliffe. Comprising more than 800 buildings within the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, the Bedford Historic District contains some of Brooklyn's most distinctive and well-preserved late- 19th-century streetscapes since its 2015 designation. 280 Hancock Street between Marcy and Tompkins Avenues is one of the six premiere row houses (274 to 284 Hancock) with one of the most outstanding, creatively-designed block fronts in the area, enlivened by the juxtaposition of Romanesque and Renaissance Revival styles. Unique highlights include historic elements: first-story stained glass transom and resurfaced box stoop with gate. Additional significant architectural features include large rusticated voussoirs, band of colonnettes with foliated capitals supported by moldings with scrolled ends, round-arched-headed third-story window openings with molded archivolts; bracketed cornice with modillions and sawtooth and beaded moldings. Though legally classified as a "Converted Dwelling Class "B", the home is configured as One (1) Class "A" apartment on the garden floor, and single-room occupancy (SRO) on floors 2-4, with (8) furnished rooms, (1) living room, and (4) kitchenettes. The home features a full, unfinished basement with egress to rear yard, which is also accessible from garden floor unit. Current Rent Roll: $3,502/yr. and includes up-to-date DHCR and property registrations. Building will be delivered partially vacant. Transportation includes the A/C trains at Nostrand Ave Station, B43 (Tompkins Ave) and B26 (Halsey St). Area amenities include Bedford YMCA, Von King Park, Saratoga Park, Restoration Plaza, Brooklyn Public Library - Macon Branch, dining, and local shops and retailers.
