Property Description for 1 Hanson Place, 16-G
New Listing! Lovely, mint two bedroom,/two bathroom condominium loft in One Hanson Place, the iconic, landmark former Williamsburgh Savings Bank clock tower building. Soaring panoramic views south to Prospect Park, the Harbor, Verrazano and beyond. Spacious great room and open Viking-equipped kitchen, perfect for small dinner parties and the windowed second bedroom provides ample space as a guest room, yet is ideal for a nursery or home office/den. A full bath is located across the hall as is the washer/dryer. Next door is a wonderfully sunny, open king-size master suite with its own bath, complete with two-sink vanity and wide, glass-enclosed shower stall. The sale includes an 8th floor private storage locker. With beamed, 10. 5 foot ceilings above, chestnut strip flooring below and custom finishes throughout, One Hanson set the standard for luxury buildings in Brownstone Brooklyn. Its location could not be more ideal. It rises above the Atlantic/Barclays Terminal (2,3,4,5,B,D,N,Q,R and LIRR, with the C/G two blocks away), it sits at the nexus of Fort Greene, Boerum Hill, Prospect Heights, Park Slope and Downtown Brooklyn -- and the restaurant and retail districts of each neighborhood, it is within blocks of Fort Greene Park and every imaginable amenity -- including Whole Foods and NY's newest Apple store opening within weeks across the street, scores of restaurants of every type, retail from budget to higher-end, friendly pubs and lounges, some with live jazz performances, and the new Barclays Center for sports and music fans. Significantly, for entertainment and for value-add, One Hanson anchors the south end of the rapidly expanding BAM Cultural District, soon to surpass Lincoln Center to become the largest cultural district in the world, adding substantial value to any purchase. Building amenities include a live-in Resident Manager/Super, 13 incredible full-time staff, a gym (soon to be completed renovated with all new equipment designed by fitness experts), a huge, sunny 8th floor children's playroom, two bike storage rooms, a game room with pool table, ping pong and foosball tables, and two large, landscaped and furnished common terraces with views north to Manhattan and south to Prospect Park. This is the building and apartment you have been looking for. (There exists a very rare opportunity to purchase this unit and the unit beneath it with the same layout to craft an incredibly valuable four-bedroom, four-bath duplex. Please ask for more details). Capital assessment through 2018 for facade repairs completed in 2012. Abated taxes until 2024.
