Luxury abounds at 1039 Harvard Street. A common feature with corner lots, this home utilizes a generous setback from the side to create an enviable backyard size. Being a corner lot also provides unobstructed views and no immediate neighbors peering in to your backyard.
Built in 2021 and meticulously maintained by its current owner, this home is awaiting its new owner. Built by Smith Family Homes, the quality of construction of this home at this price is unrivaled. Recent pool built by Platinum Pools (2022).
Upon entering the foyer, one is greeted with a crisp color palate and what is undoubtedly an abundance of style. A beautiful framed herringbone wood floor is a marvelous statement.
To the right of the foyer is the study, which could be utilized as a second formal. The downstairs features 10 ft ceilings, and this room has a tray ceiling detail. Custom draperies from Creative Blinds® adorn the windows.
To the left of the foyer is the dining room, with similar accoutrements to the study: custom draperies, tray ceiling. Subtle wainscoting is a treat for the eyes, topped off with a modern bubble chandelier in gold.
Another look at this distinctive room, and those gorgeous floors. With a micro-bevel edge, the wide-plank light-colored floors are on every modern enthusiasts wish list right now!
This defined area is an extension of the foyer. The countertop is the perfect landing space for your guest's purse or phone, but this custom cabinetry also has a wired enclave for a wine/beverage refrigerator and could function as a dry bar. A coat closet is immediately to the left, and beyond that the first half restroom. Ahead is the breakfast, kitchen and living spaces.
Convenience is key, and this home has two downstairs half restrooms. The first is pictured here, with elegant tones of gold and a punchy accent wall. This is the restroom guests will most likely use when you entertain.
The kitchen: A subtle hue employed both as an island accent color and oversized tile backsplash break up the crisp, monochrome Benjamin Moore® Super White present throughout. Three 12” Maxim® Crete Concrete Pendants are perfectly positioned over the island. The side-by-side Thermador® column refrigerator and freezer (separate units, trimmed out and adjacent to each other) measure a total of 48" across.
Don't be fooled; that is a massive 10 ft island with storage on both sides, and Della Terra® Calacatta Maywood Quartz with waterfall edge.
Seen in the background here is the pass-through that is the butler's pantry, on the way to the dining room.
The butler's pantry also functions as a wet bar with second sink, and is ideally located between the kitchen and dining rooms. Open floating shelving allows you to display your most beautiful barware. A walk-in pantry with in-door light switch is to the left.
There is no shortage of counter space. A 48” Monogram® gas 4 burner range with grill AND griddle, and two ovens, is the workhorse of the kitchen. The Vent-A-Hood® Range Hood and pot filler add to the comfort of cooking.
The scale in the photos does not do this space justice. You need to see this space in person to appreciate the enormity of the space!
This is the definition of the saying "the kitchen is the heart of the home"! Open concept to the breakfast and living areas, with unobstructed views of the backyard. There is SO MUCH NATURAL LIGHT in this area!!
Again, this photo does not do this area justice... The breakfast room is a 9 ft by 12 ft enclave with abstract pendant light and fantastic views of the backyard.
The family room with sweeping, unobstructed views of the backyard. Between the smooth finish walls and tons of natural light, this area is bright!
A fireplace is the focal point of this area, so naturally the 55” Samsung® Frame TV is set over it. Appearing as a piece of art, the TV does not distract from the integrity of the style of this room! A built-in bookshelf in the background houses interesting objects.
Open concept, yet with defined spaces.
A second patio door leads to the backyard and pool.
At the back of the house and just off the garage, is a 10.5 ft by 8 ft mudroom. With four individual sets of built-ins that include open shelving and drawers, and and additional storage cabinet (with an outlet inside), this large drop-zone ensures your common areas will remain clutter-free! Notice the terrazo-looking TileBar® matte tile.
The second half restroom is located towards the back of the home, just off the mudroom. Beautiful terrazo-looking tiled flooring in this space makes it a convenient and utilitarian option for your poolside parties.
Before heading upstairs, please note through that small door is a 3.5 ft by 10.5 ft under stairs storage space that is currently used as a princess treehouse! If you've always desired your very own Harry Potter closet, this is the house for you!!
The hardest working room of the house is also surprisingly big, and very well-equipped. The second floor laundry room has plenty of built-in cabinetry, quartz countertop with undermount sink, Samsung® SmartThings Washer and Dryer, and an additional storage closet. Tilebar® HexArt Pop Gris 8" Hexagon Matte Porcelain Tile adorns the floor.
The upstairs gameroom is outfitted with a shiplap accent wall, floating shelves and built-ins, and trey ceiling detail. Excellent smart home components include a Sony® 65” Oled 4K UHD Smart TV, Sonos® Arc Premium Smart Soundbar, Sonos® Wireless Subwolfer, and Origin Acoustics D65 Director 6” Series in-ceiling loudspeaker. The smart system closet is located just to the right down the hall.
A serene escape in the primary bedroom. A tray ceiling detail yields an 11 ft height, and a subtle accent wall perfectly frames the space. The additional seating area in the background provides unobstructed views, and other options for this space would be for a Peloton®, yoga mat or desk space. If you should so desire, there is the ability to add a fireplace in the primary where the TV currently is. The exterior chimney is already in place!
Through a pocket door, between the primary bedroom and the primary bathroom is a perfectly appointed vanity area, with two sets of built-ins and a spacious quartz countertop. A top-down bottom-up Hunter Douglas® window covering provides privacy while maximizing light.
Equipped with over-mount double sinks on quartz countertop, shaker-style cabinetry, chrome fixtures, and polished tile flooring, this stylish area is also highly functional. Notice the in-ceiling speakers extend to this area.
An ultra-luxe primary bathroom allows you to have a spa day everyday! In addition to a soaking tub, there is an open shower area (to the right of the one glass panel) with chrome shower head and separate handheld body sprayer.
A total show-stopper: a platform-set soaking tub enclosed by oversize TileBar® Kenridge® Ribbon Maple Matte Porcelain tiles.
A built-in bookshelf houses books and treasures alike. This hallway houses the in-ceiling access to a climatized attic.
This secondary bedroom shares a Jack and Jill bathroom, seen in the next photo. All window coverings on the second floor are Hunter Douglas®.
The Jack and Jill bathroom, with double sinks, quartz countertops and tons of shaker-style cabinetry.
The shower/tub and toilet are located behind a privacy door. A high-design area, the shower boasts a trendy 2" x 20" polished ceramic tile from TileBar® while the floor is a patterned Annie Selke® Aster White Porcelain Floor.
On the other side of the Jack and Jill bathroom is another secondary bedroom. With a punchy custom-painted accent wall and a wall of built-in closet, this precious space is not to be missed!
This secondary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and generous walk-in closet. Located at the front of the house, there is a built-in window bench with open storage.
Leaving the picture-perfect interiors, the backyard stands on its own as a dreamy oasis in the city. There are two sets of doors to the backyard. Truly, there are no nosy neighbors here! An 8 foot tall fence encloses the backyard space, with climbing vines in the process of growing.

Let's discuss the details of this amazing pool built by Platinum Pools in 2022: This is a 12,785 gallon heated pool with spa, with an in-floor cleaning system; bioshield UV; in-line chlorinator; and auto-fill. Depths of 3.5' to 5'. Color-changing lights. And not only are the systems controlled via app, but it can be controlled via app while AWAY from the network. So whilst at dinner if you decide you want to come home to a heated pool, BAM!, use the app!
Outside the double patio doors is a seating area.
Another part of the covered patio comfortably seats a dining set for al fresco meals. Hook-ups for a wall-mounted TV are on the wall to the left. Not shown: more yard in this area, all the way to the front fence.
Even with the pool and patios, there is still plenty of yard space for lounging.
