Landmarked 1881 neo-Grec gem on historic Bed-Stuy block, converted to five sun-filled residences. Two-level layouts feature expansive living spaces, bay windows, and modern amenities in a tree-lined setting. Currently, 1 apartment is for sale.
168 Hancock Street is an 1881 architectural landmark designed by Marshall J. Morrill in the neo Grec and Second Empire styles. The building has been converted into five residences, each with three sided exposure that creates bright, windowed rooms throughout. Located on one of Bedford Stuyvesant's most established blocks within the historic district, the building is surrounded by landmark brownstones along tree lined Hancock Street.
The residences feature two level layouts with a clear separation between public and private spaces. Main floors typically include expansive living and dining areas anchored by generous bay windows, with at least one unit offering over 22 feet of living space. Open kitchens come equipped with full size appliances, and each residence includes a powder room and in-unit washer and dryer. Upper levels are devoted to bedroom wings, with primary bedrooms large enough to accommodate queen or king beds and additional flexible bedrooms suitable for guests, offices, or nurseries. The building's original design, with its monumental windows stretching along the façade, ensures abundant natural light throughout.
The property is part of a larger development site that includes adjacent parcels at 164 and 166 Hancock Street. The combined lots total approximately 6,852 square feet under R6B zoning, with listings indicating significant unused development rights and potential for approximately 19,332 buildable square feet for residential use across the full assemblage. The location provides convenient access to the A and C trains and is within blocks of the neighborhood's restaurants, cafes, and boutiques that have come to define contemporary Bed Stuy.
