Somerville just welcomed its first LEED-certified single-family home — a spiffy corner lot at 22 Harvard Street.

While eco-friendly homes are a cause for celebration, buyers have even more to get excited about, starting with a covetable location.

Located about a mile from Union Square and the Harvard campus and steps away from Somerville’s trendiest restaurants and mainstays, the new owners will never want for things to do, see, and savor. High walk and bike scores, as well as proximity to T stops, make it easy to get around but drivers will especially appreciate the one-car attached garage with an electric charger already installed.

For sleek new construction with all the bells and whistles, 22 Harvard Street has also managed to avoid the pitfalls of new builds. You’ll see no washed-out millennial gray tones here. Instead, warm but modern wood accents and cabinetry play nicely with unexpected pops of color and interesting fixtures.

The main living space enjoys an open floor plan that combines a kitchen with eat-in waterfall island, sunny dining area, and a living room anchored by a fireplace and a pair of built-in window benches we’re obsessed with. Reading nooks? Perfect sunning spots for your cat? Either way, a lovely touch.

At a hair under 3,400 square feet, the home manages to include five bedrooms, 5.5 baths, and a walk-out lower level family room with a wet bar and wine storage that leads to a patio.

Finally, not one but two — TWO — roof decks with city views offer tree-top entertaining, dining, and lounge space.

Open house hours are Saturday, April 15, from noon to 2 p.m.

The home is on the market for $2,999,999. The sale is represented by John Raposo with Encompass Property Solutions, 617-839-3644.
