...Welcome to 237 Hancock Street

Located on a beautiful tree-lined block in Stuyvesant Heights, step in time into this stunning Romanesque Renaissance Revival mansion originally built in 1890 for clothier Wilson Randolph by architect Peter Lauritzen in landmarked Bed-Stuy Brooklyn. This rarely available, top floor one bedroom, one bath gem sits on the third floor with a large landing, in a pre-war mansion.

Inside, you’re welcomed by high ceilings, oversized windows, and one of the most striking decorative fireplaces you’ll find in Brooklyn. Original crown moldings, woodwork, and pre-war details remain wonderfully intact, while thoughtful updates bring the space forward — including recessed lighting, a renovated bathroom, and a fully updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, and a gas burning stove.

The bright queen-sized bedroom offers peaceful separation from the living area, making the apartment feel both spacious and functional.

Residents also enjoy a common roof deck, perfect for soaking up the sun or taking in open sky views, along with a shared backyard that offers additional outdoor space to relax or entertain.

Maintenance Includes: Water/sewer, taxes, insurance, steam heat
