Your new living must be seen to be believed, boasting an 8-sided monumental bay forming the living and dining room, a one-of-a-kind space topped with high ceilings and seven monumental windows.

The primary suite is exceptional: over 25 feet in length, anchored by a stunning octagonal bay room. Yes, another octangle bay. The primary suite easily accommodates a king bed with room to spare. A dressing area leads to the en suite bath with double vanity, and an adjacent bonus space offers a large home office, or much more. The secondary bedroom accommodates a queen comfortably, with its own en suite bath, dedicated dressing area, and corner windows that make it work perfectly as a generously large sized bedroom with room for a home office. Finally, Residence 2 enjoys a gracious entry foyer with an oversized closet providing immediate ample storage, complemented by an in-unit washer and dryer. Set along tree-lined Hancock Street, surrounded by landmark brownstones on one of Bed-Stuy's most established blocks.

We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one. Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls. Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 3018380011. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
