## Property Overview

Designed by Studio Nyandak, 508 Hancock Street is a fully gut-renovated Brooklyn townhouse that combines thoughtful architectural design, refined materials, and fully upgraded building systems within a classic Bedford-Stuyvesant brownstone.

Reimagined from the inside out, the home is shaped by natural light, a sculptural central core, and a restrained palette of natural materials. The main entertaining level features 11-foot ceilings, a light-filled kitchen with ample storage, herringbone French oak flooring, recessed shadow-reveal baseboards, flush-mount interior doors, and clean, contemporary architectural aesthetics.

At the center of the home, a sculptural custom staircase rises beneath a dramatic overhead skylight, bringing natural light into the center of the home and creating a strong visual connection between levels.

The parlor floor is designed for both everyday life and entertaining, with generous living and dining areas flowing into the kitchen and rear terrace. At the back of the house, a 10-foot-wide accordion-style glass door opens onto a full-width private deck, extending the living space outdoors and creating a seamless connection to the landscaped backyard.

The kitchen is defined by custom cabinetry, a large center island with seating, Danby marble countertops, and a 14-foot-long white oak custom cabinet with a stainless steel countertop. The appliance package includes a panel-ready Viking refrigerator, Viking gas range, Miele integrated dishwasher, and XO wine refrigerator.

The primary suite occupies the length of the second floor, providing privacy and generous proportions. A walk-through dressing room with custom built-ins leads to a spa-style bathroom with a stone-resin soaking tub, separate walk-in shower, private enclosed water closet, recessed medicine cabinets, and a custom-designed vanity finished in tile and marble.

The third floor includes three additional bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each bathroom features a skylight and a custom-built vanity in tile and marble, while wide-plank white oak flooring continues through the upper floors. Toto and Geberit wall-hung toilets are used throughout the residence.

The finished lower level includes a separate apartment with its own entrance, providing flexibility for guests, extended family, additional living space, or rental income. Dedicated cellar storage is provided for both the owner’s residence and the lower-level apartment.

The renovation also includes all-new plumbing, electrical systems, windows, and a Daikin mini-split heating and cooling system. Laundry facilities are conveniently located on three levels.

Located on a tree-lined block in Bedford-Stuyvesant, 508 Hancock Street is just around the corner from Saraghina, down the street from Peaches, and near the numerous restaurants, cafés, and shops along Malcolm X Boulevard, Lewis Avenue, and Tompkins Avenue.

508 Hancock Street is a carefully designed townhouse defined by natural light, refined materials, and a distinct architectural point of view.

Based on house sales in Stuyvesant Heights with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric.

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 3016600006. 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.
