Description

Introducing an exceptional residence in Abbington, Harrisburg’s premier swim and tennis/pickleball community, where timeless architecture meets refined design and everyday luxury. Set on a private lot with common space to one side and to the rear with mature trees, this beautifully maintained 2011-built home offers elegance, scale, and thoughtful details throughout. A striking exterior of stone and vinyl with shake accents is complemented by a three-car side-load garage and a double-wide driveway. Guests are welcomed by a covered front porch and an impressive front door with transom, sidelights, and decorative glass, opening to a dramatic two-story foyer adorned with hardwood floors, crown molding, and a statement chandelier. The main level is designed for both gracious entertaining and comfortable living. A private home office with French doors and a formal dining room with wainscoting and chandelier frame the entry. Hardwood floors extend through the hall and into the heart of the home, where a sun-filled two-story great room commands attention with expansive windows, custom wainscoting to the ceiling, directional lighting, and a gas-log fireplace with tile surround and wood mantle. Open to the great room, the chef’s kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring granite countertops, a spacious island with seating, 42-inch cabinetry with crown molding, tile backsplash, pendant and recessed lighting, and a walk-in pantry. A bright sunroom with faux-French doors opens to the deck, offering seamless indoor-outdoor living and serene views of the private backyard. The main level also includes a full bath, a guest bedroom with backyard views, and a thoughtfully designed drop zone with bead board accents and built-in hooks, connecting to the laundry room and garage—perfect for everyday organization. Upstairs, a split staircase with open treads and wrought iron spindles leads to generously sized secondary bedrooms and a well-appointed hall bath. Overlooking the great room, a catwalk leads to the owner’s suite, a true retreat featuring an octagonal tray ceiling, sitting area, multiple walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath with jetted soaking tub, walk-in tiled shower, private water closet, split granite vanities, and recessed lighting. Additional highlights include a tankless gas water heater, irrigation system, fully encapsulated crawlspace with sump pump and dehumidifier, abundant storage, and solar panels to be paid off prior to closing and conveyed to the new owner. This is a rare opportunity to own a sophisticated home in one of Harrisburg’s most desirable neighborhoods—where luxury, comfort, and community come together effortlessly. And please do not forget to check out the schools! We encourage that!
