1 Hanson Place, 21-D

Get ready to welcome springtime weather from your high-floor, planted wraparound terrace — a unicorn in Fort Greene. Unit 21D is a 1662 square foot two-bedroom / two-bath condo perched at the southwest corner of the building and offers open views above Brownstone Brooklyn from Williamsburg to the Verrazzano, NY Harbor, and Statue of Liberty. Open and spacious, with sunlight streaming through seven oversized windows, the apartment's indoor features include a large, renovated kitchen that opens into a wide expanse of space. A portion of the interior, currently used as a living room and home theater, may be closed off with sliding panels to create a large third bedroom. The primary bedroom is en suite with a soaking tub and walk-in closet. Six-foot windows in the bedroom peer through terrace foliage to miles of open sky beyond. The entire apartment is set back from the rest of the building which buffers street noise and ensures peaceful days and nights. One Hanson Place is the landmark former Williamsburgh Savings Bank Building, whose soaring, gilded clocktower, has been known for generations as the Beacon of Brooklyn. The location could not be more convenient: the Atlantic Barclays Terminal, with nine subway lines (2,3,4,5,B,D,N,Q,R) and the LIRR, are downstairs and the building sits at the crossroads of five of Brooklyn’s most desirable neighborhoods: Ft. Greene, Boerum Hill, Prospect Heights, Park Slope and Downtown Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), Brooklyn’s polestar for art and repertory programming, is next door. Apple and Whole Foods are across the street, Ft. Greene Park and two more subways (C/G) are three blocks away, Barclays is two blocks away, and supermarkets, retail, and restaurants appropriate for every appetite, food restriction and budget. The apartment is remarkably quiet as the wrapped terrace sets the unit back from street noise. Building amenities include 24/7 staff, a Residents Lounge, a gym, a big and bright, 8th-floor children’s playroom, bike, and stroller storage, private storage, three common terraces, and game and conference rooms. Capital assessment of $1152. Abated taxes until 2024. Pet-friendly. Showing by appointment.
