Soma Van Ness as SS build - thoughts?

Well after a bit of research I'm somewhat settled on a Soma Van Ness as the frame for a SS build.

Unfortunately, I don't know much about this type of bike. Based on what I know it's more a FG bike but they sell it as a SS as well. What do I need to know to build this as a SS? Will a normal SS hub work fine (120mm spacing)? Crank, brakes of my choice okay? Any suggestions? Keeping in mind my hope to keep the build in the $1,000-1,200 range (I have a saddle, bars, stem (threadless), seat post, pedals already).

Thanks.
