In this week’s edition of NoVa Best New Listings, UrbanTurf looks at a 1930s Cape Cod in Barcroft, a contemporary four-bedroom in Dover, and a one-bedroom in Courthouse.

Two-Story Cape Cod in Barcroft

French doors and floor-to-ceiling windows look out from the living room of this two-story Barcroft Cape Cod to a lush backyard garden with a stone patio. The owners recently updated the kitchen, which features a breakfast bar, and the dining room contains a stone fireplace, a nice place to gather around for those who like to entertain.
