1607 Harris Rd

Glenside, PA 19038

It's with great pleasure that I present to you 1607 Harris Road in the highly sought after community of Laverock. Custom built-in 1966 of stone and brick by the renowned Builder Vic Hoffman known for luxury and superior quality of custom homes. Pulling up to the curb you cannot help but take notice of the absolutely pristine landscaping with its variety of manicured ornamental shrubbery, rock gardens and pathways leading to a beautiful covered entrance. As you proceed through the gorgeous double walnut entry doors you will be mesmerized by the expansive grand foyer showcasing a stunning and classic circular staircase with balcony effect creating a perfect venue for your invited guests. To the right of the grand foyer and through a set of solid wood double doors is an impressive and inviting library boasting solid wood-paneled walls, random width peg oak floors, built in cabinetry with drawers, wood beamed 12 ft ceiling, accent lighting, and a beautiful stone fireplace with large mantle creating an elegant retreat to cozy up with a favorite book. To the left of the foyer, you will encompass a voluminous living room and dining room combination boasting gleaming hardwood floors and two oversized picture windows. Moving to the kitchen you will be greeted by a long and expansive island that is the centerpiece of a chef's dream, including a newer gas cooktop, built-in oven and seating for four or more. There are plenty of cabinets with pullouts and storage and some newer luxury appliances such as a built-in Monogram paneled door refrigerator and combination wall oven and microwave. Completing this wonderful area is a desk nook, hardwood floors, and access to a full-size laundry room. With an ease of flow, the kitchen leads you to the sun-filled family room showcasing a cathedral ceiling with recessed lighting, hardwood floors, zoned HVAC, and a lovely fireplace displaying mosaic style tile trim and bluestone hearth. Located conveniently off the family room and through the glass door you will encounter a small attached wood deck which includes a gas line BBQ grill that overlooks a beautiful private yard. Stepping out to the rear yard, you will discover a spacious raised deck that will be the perfect spot for your outside activities and relaxation. Ascending to the upper level you will encounter the palatial and fully renovated owner's suite (2008). Let me begin with the contemporary style bathroom featuring a gorgeous shower with new fixtures, stylish vanity with double sinks, tile floors and walls, and new plumbing. Other notable updates include a new sliding glass door with custom sliding privacy panels that opens onto the roof top deck! Completing the freshly painted primary bedroom is a vanity nook, large walk-in closet, additional spacious closet with organizers, recessed lighting, ceiling fan, and new carpets. As you depart the primary suite to the next level, here you will discover four nicely sized bedrooms, all with an abundance of spacious closets. There is a full bathroom with double sinks, a half bath and a grand size hallway with additional closets. Heading back to the main level, from the foyer, you will notice a wide stairway leading downward to two additional levels in this home. The first level consists of an additional large family room with a bar, a full bathroom and an area that can be used as an office or playroom. This level also provides an abundance of crawl space storage with convenient access from inside and outside, and direct access points to the one-car garage and driveway. The 2nd level is currently set up as an amazing recreational room with attached storage bench seating and direct ingress to the massive storage and mechanical room. Speaking of mechanicals, the Air Handler and A/C units (2 Zones) were replaced in 2015, a 50-gallon hot water heater was installed in (2019). Please see the full list of improvements and updates at the property.
