## Property Overview

451 Hancock Street is a handsome and meticulously cared-for two-family townhouse in Stuyvesant Heights — recently renovated and move-in ready.Parlor FloorThe parlor floor is open and inviting — high ceilings, generous proportions, and lovely southern light with a layout that flows naturally and opens onto a substantial dining terrace that leads to a stunning backyard.  An exceptional kitchen anchors the space: large center island with overhang seating, ZLine six-burner pro-style gas range with vented hood, stacked wall oven and microwave, a 42&rdquo; French door refrigerator, and an oversized porcelain farmhouse sink. Considered additions — among them &Tradition Flower Pot pendants and a Noguchi lamp — bring warmth and character to this level of the home.Garden LevelTwo spacious bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bath and heated floors.  The primary bath is impressive — five fixtures, including a glass-enclosed shower with rain head, separate floating soaking tub and double sinks. The primary bedroom opens directly onto a striking two-tiered rear yard, landscaped and featuring bluestone pavers, pea gravel, and an irrigation system.Lower LevelA genuinely livable floor, fully renovated with care — the quality carries through in every detail, from the red oak rift-cut wooden slat staircase to a beautifully finished bathroom with Portola Roman Clay walls, Antigua marble, and Nasco ceramic tile. This level of the home has been comprehensively waterproofed — sump pump with battery backup, French drain, and waterproofed walls — and features a dedicated office, side-by-side washer/dryer with connected sink, and custom built-in storage.Top FloorA well-appointed one-bedroom apartment currently generating $3,650 per month. The bedroom is sizeable and the living room comfortable, with a separate office rounding out the layout.  The four-fixture bath has a double vanity and glass-enclosed shower, storage is ample, and the unit has its own washer/dryer. The apartment can be delivered vacant and could readily be incorporated into the main house if desired.AdditionalSolar panels provide meaningful savings on electricity.  Tax Class 1 protected.  Ring cameras installed at the front and rear of the house.  Kasa Wi-Fi-enabled light switches controllable via mobile phone.  Ductless mini-split heating and cooling.LocationMoments from Herbert Von King Park and surrounded by an excellent array of neighborhood staples — such as Saraghina, Lun&Agrave;tico, Selune, BKB Brooklyn Brasserie, Ler Lers, Daphne’s, Barb’s, Sincerely Tommy, dear friend books, and Manny’s Wine Shop.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Sales data through August 2026.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. 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 3016540076. 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.
