Now new will do nicely

- By Miriam Schwartz

Part of The Residences at Sennott Park, 12 Norfolk Court in Cambridge is a component of a recent developmen­t — a contempora­ry home with the cutest outdoor space and a huge “front yard” in the form of Sennott Park directly across the street.

Located within striking distance of both Central Square and Inman Square, this snazzy new constructi­on is the answer to families wishing for a freestandi­ng, single-family home and didn’t think one was in reach in this neighborho­od. Ta-dah! With offstreet parking!

Someone’s paying attention to what today’s homebuyers are looking for, because the three-level, almost 2,000 square-foot home checks off box after box of must-have and I- didn’t- know- I- neededthis-but-now-I-do amenities. It’s aesthetica­lly trendy, without trying too hard, with pretty details that catch the eye here and there, like the sleek tiled gas fireplace or wide-plank flooring. Enormous JELD-WEN windows wrap the first floor’s living, dining room, and kitchen provide an abundance of natural light and an inside-outside feel.

Want to shut it all away? Motorized cellular shades tuck you in. Muted tones, quartz countertop­s, Fisher & Paykel appliances, and slim cabinetry in the kitchen complement the home’s high-end look and lead you to the intimate patio area.

The primary suite and a second bedroom occupy the home’s second level. The former includes a large walk-in closet and a luxe bath with heated flooring. The latter, a sunny picture window and its own en-suite bath with a deep soaking tub. On the garden level, and maybe prescientl­y for these work-from-home times, buyers will find a third bedroom or home office space.

For more informatio­n about the property, on the market for $1,845,000, contact Britany Caruso with Senné, 617-681-7219. The home is solar-ready and includes charging capabiliti­es for electric vehicles.
