Hanover Homes

A multi-family development built around the concept of a walkable Midtown Santa Cruz. Located near the Branciforte Library this infill neighborhood was once a decaying farmhouse on a large lot, Hanover Homes has used local ADU laws to mindfully add homes, and a neighborhood path to the library while keeping existing large trees.

Modern balcony with wooden railing, outdoor seating with blue cushion, potted plant, and view of nearby houses and trees under a clear blue sky.
