189 Hancock Street ni jengo kubwa, lenye usanifu mzuri, la Neo-Grec lililojengwa mwaka 1886 na mwanausanifu maarufu wa Brooklyn, Isaac D. Reynolds. Reynolds alihakikisha kuwa nyumba hii ilipambwa na vipengele vyote vinavyofafanua Harakati ya Urembo. Moja ya harakati muhimu za kitamaduni za karne ya 19, Harakati ya Urembo ni kipindi cha sanaa ya mapambo cha enzi ya Victorian.

Ikiwa na dari za juu, vyumba vilivyopangwa vyema, na wingi wa maelezo asilia kila mahali — ikijumuisha mantles sita, sakafu za parquet zenye mipaka ya inlay, kabati za ndani, mti wa mahogany, milango ya poche, na mapambo ya plaster na mbao yaliyopambwa — nyumba hii ya ajabu inaonyesha vipengele vyote vinavyopendewa vya brownstone za kipekee za Brooklyn.

leta mchoraji wako na rekebisha nyumba hii hadi utukufu wake wa tabia. Nyumba hii ya hadhi ya hadithi nne, ambayo ni halali kwa familia mbili, kwa sasa imeandaliwa kama triplex ya mmiliki, ikiwa na jikoni na chumba cha kulia kwenye ngazi ya bustani. Chumba cha mbele ni nafasi kubwa ya kuishi yenye kioo cha kuvutia na madirisha makubwa, wakati chumba cha nyuma kinajumuisha kabati za ndani, mantle ya moto yenye mantel, na kazi ya plaster iliyopambwa kwa makini ambayo inatukufuza chumba hicho. Juu, katikati ya vyumba viwili vikubwa, kabati la kupitisha la awali linaendelea kuwa lililo thabiti na bafu kamili ina tub ya asili ya miguu ya kung'ara. Nyumba ya ghorofa ya juu ina vyumba viwili, jikoni iliyo na muundo wa kisasa, na bafu iliyo reheshwa.

189 Hancock ipo katika eneo zuri la Bedford Historic District, karibu na kituo cha treni ya haraka A/C pamoja na kituo cha Long Island Railroad. Mahali maarufu ya karibu ni pamoja na Bunny, Le Paris Dakar, Alive Herbal, Hart’s, Glorietta Baldy, Peaches Hot House, Tilly’s, Corto, Peace & Riot, Chicky’s General Store, Bed-Vyne, na huduma zote zinazotolewa na mtaa wa Nostrand, Tompkins, Bedford, na Franklin Aves.

Frank Harwood Sellman, mfanyabiashara maarufu na mtendaji katika sekta ya uzalishaji wa ngozi ya Marekani wa karne ya 19, alihudumu kama Rais wa Kampuni ya Sellman. Yeye na familia yake walikuwa wakaazi wa kwanza wa nyumba hii, wakiishi hapo kwa karibu miaka 40.

189 Hancock Street is a grand, architecturally rich 1886 Neo-Grec brownstone designed by the eminent Brooklyn architect Isaac D. Reynolds. Reynolds made sure this stately home was graced with all the elements that define the Aesthetic Movement. One of the most important cultural movements of the late 19th century, the Aesthetic Movement is a decorative, artistic phase of the Victorian era.

With soaring ceilings, beautifully proportioned rooms, and a plethora of original details throughout — including six mantels, parquet wood floors with inlay borders, built-in cabinetry, mahogany newel post, pocket doors, and ornate plaster and wood moldings — this remarkable home showcases all the coveted features of the most splendid Brooklyn brownstones.

Bring your architect and restore this home to its characteristic glory. This four-story, legal two-family home is currently configured as an owner’s triplex, with the kitchen and dining room situated on the garden level. The front parlor is a lofty living space with a stunning pier mirror and over-sized windows, while the rear parlor features built-in cabinetry, a fireplace mantel with over-mantle, and intricate plaster relief-work that crowns the room. Upstairs, between the two large bedrooms, the original built-in pass-through cabinetry remains intact and a full bathroom has the original claw-foot tub. The top-floor apartment includes two bedrooms, an updated kitchen, and a renovated bath.

189 Hancock is ideally located in the highly desirable Bedford Historic District, close to the A/C express train stop as well as the Long Island Railroad station. Favorite nearby hotspots include Bunny, Le Paris Dakar, Alive Herbal, Hart’s, Glorietta Baldy, Peaches Hot House, Tilly’s, Corto, Peace & Riot, Chicky’s General Store, Bed-Vyne, and all the amenities that nearby Nostrand, Tompkins, Bedford, and Franklin Aves have to offer.

Frank Harwood Sellman, a prominent 19th-century merchant and executive in the American leather manufacturing industry, served as President of the Sellman Company. He and his family were the home’s first residents, living there for nearly 40 years.
