About this home
<p>Price improvement of $100,000 and seller is offering to pay all buyer closing costs.</p> <p>493 Hancock Street - A Rare Treasure with Private Parking & Sauna</p> <p>Welcome to 493 Hancock Street, an exceptional 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom townhome that seamlessly blends historic Brooklyn charm with modern sophistication. Ideally located on a tree-lined block at the edge of the Stuyvesant Heights Historic District, this south-facing residence spans an impressive 52 feet in depth, offering expansive interiors, rare private parking for two vehicles, and a host of luxury amenities - including a full-floor primary suite with dual terraces and a spa-inspired en-suite bathroom.</p> <p>Ground Level Sanctuary</p> <p>A rarity in Brooklyn, the home greets you with a private single-car garage and additional driveway parking for another vehicle. Beyond the garage, a spacious, light-filled recreation room awaits - ideal for use as a den, gym, or studio. Enhancing the experience, this level also features a full bath and an indulgent infrared sauna, perfect for post-workout recovery or serene relaxation.</p> <p>Grand Parlor Living</p> <p>Entering the parlor level, the home immediately impresses with its scale and sunlight. The south-facing living room is drenched in natural light throughout the day, providing a warm and inviting setting for gatherings. Flowing seamlessly into a formal dining area - designed to accommodate a 6-10 seat table - the space is anchored by a striking wood staircase with white candle-stick spindles, making entertaining effortless and elegant.</p> <p>Kitchen & Powder Room</p> <p>The chef's kitchen overlooking the garden is a masterpiece of intentional design, curated for both culinary creativity and entertainment. Expansive Taj Mahal inspired countertops, rich dark & off-white cabinetry, and oil-rubbed bronze hardware create a timeless aesthetic. Two milk-glass globe pendants hang above the island for optimal, soft light. A full suite of paneled Bertazzoni appliances including a French door refrigerator, induction cooktop & oven, and built-in microwave ensures peak functionality with Italian refinement. Across from the kitchen, a jewel-box powder room showcases emerald and white marble mosaic flooring with a Calacatta marble sink, an unforgettable detail for guests.</p> <p>Second Floor Comfort</p> <p>The second-floor features two spacious bedrooms, a large home office (or third bedroom), and two full baths. The first bath pairs Eastern White marble walls with herringbone mosaics underfoot, complemented by a rattan double vanity, brushed nickel fixtures and deep soaking tub. The en-suite bath to the second bedroom stuns with bold Calacatta Viola herringbone tiling, cream wall accents, and brushed nickel finishes - an artful balance of luxury and warmth.</p> <p>The Full-Floor Primary Retreat</p> <p>Occupying the top level, the primary suite is a private sanctuary of unparalleled scale. Two terraces extend the living space outdoors, while a massive walk-in closet provides dressing room luxury. The en-suite bathroom is a showpiece: a spa-like expanse with a floating soaking tub, oversized shower, and 96" rattan double vanity, all bathed in sunlight from the wall of windows. Bianco Carrara tiling throughout enhances the sense of serenity, while oil-rubbed bronze fixtures add subtle drama.</p> <p>493 Hancock is located in the most stunning, historic portion of Stuyvesant Heights surrounded by architectural beauty and diverse culture. Neighborhood favorites include Saraghina Restaurant & Bakery located on the parallel corner, Lunatico, Peaches, L'Antagoniste, Trad Room, Brooklyn Tea, Secret Garden Gypsy, Early Yves, Brown Butter, Botani, Turtles All The Way Down, Therapy Wine Bar, Bed-Vyne, Fulton Park, and many more.
