This two-bedroom rental at 148 Hancock Street in Bed Stuy has a nice prewar vibe and a decent amount of space; its proximity to the Nostrand A/C stop makes it easily accessible as well. On the negative side, it’s on the first floor and the monthly rent of $1,850 seems on the pricey side for 800 square feet in this part of town, especially if you’re also paying a broker’s fee.

this broker should pass the “good stuff” around. maybe after a few puff, the $1850 would look OK.
Maly, Have you been in the nabe. I live on this block, so does Azim. Take a look at the website link I posted, then you can tell me if the neighborhood is grungy. The building on the top left hand corner of this page is on this block, so the the streetscapte three down,

love the curtain tied in a knot, that’s a really chic look…..
looks ghetto to me. blech !!!!
Can’t you get a floor through 1+ in Boerum Hill or Carroll Gardens for a little more than this? That living room is TINY!
This building is called the Ardsley built in 1900. If the nabe is grungy the buildings around it are designed by Victorian starchitects Montrose Morris (whose building you can see in the window), J. Prauge, John Snook, Gilbert Schellenger, Parfitt Bros. So if buildings designed by those guys make a area grungy I am in love with grunge…
Owners are totally smoking crack for listing this high. In this neighborhood you can charge that much for a 2 bedroom brownstone duplex with backyard access.
Oy! that’s a sad little place in a grungy looking nabe.
