Brooklyn Apartments for Rent in Bed Stuy at 256 Hancock Street

This attractive Bed Stuy floor-through has generous spaces, high ceilings, a renovated kitchen and bathroom, and no fee. It’s on the third floor of a brownstone at 256 Hancock Street between Marcy and Tompkins.

It’s a 1.5 bedroom, whose layout isn’t completely clear from the listing. In an ideal world that front room, with the fireplace (non-working, sadly) and the trio of bay windows overlooking the street, would be your living room, with the bedroom in the back. But the kitchen may be off of the rear room, which would blow that setup.

Either way, there’s a half-bedroom off the front room that could serve as an office, a nursery or a room for a young child. Both rooms have parquet floors, crown moldings and ceiling fans.

The bathroom and kitchen are both nice; the former appears a little cramped, but the latter’s got a decent amount of cabinet and counter space and recent-looking stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher and microwave.

In terms of location, the Nostrand Avenue subway stop is a 10-minute walk away.

Listed by Matthew Scott of Corcoran, the place is renting for $2,300 a month, with no fee. Sound reasonable?
