可愛いね。ハンサムだね。


Explanation:
In English, 'You are cute' can be used for both men and women, but in Japanese, the translation is different depending on the sex of the subject. Mr Chiang's answer is fine for a girl (君かわいいね), but if the person is a boy, the Japanese would say something like　
ハンサムだね、"handsome aren't you?"
or
かわいらしいね"you are cute" (in a boyish way)

Hope this helps.
