Step into history with the McKechnie House, a Historic Landmark that blends Colonial Revival elegance with modern luxury. Built in 1926 by Hall of Fame Pirates Manager Bill McKechnie, this Blackridge gem is renowned as one of the area’s most beautiful homes. Every detail tells a story—from vibrant walls and charming built-ins to gleaming white oak floors. The chef’s kitchen is a dream with a farmhouse island, marble counters, professional Jenn Air gas stove, double stainless fridge, two sinks, and creamy cabinets. The formal dining room is perfect for entertaining, while the flagstone patio and sunroom offer year-round outdoor enjoyment. The backyard playhouse, linked to baseball history, adds a unique charm. Impeccably maintained, this home features modern updates like a new roof, HVAC, windows, wiring, plumbing, insulation, even an invisible dog fence. Just moments from the East End with an easy city commute, don’t miss your chance to own this iconic property.
