Nestled on a quiet street in Shaler Township, this classic brick home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a warm, inviting layout filled with character.
Step inside to discover beautiful hardwood floors that flow throughout the living room, dining room, hallway, and all three bedrooms. The spacious family room is anchored by a cozy fireplace and a charming stain glass window that brings in the 1940s charm. Large windows fill the home with natural light while showcasing the mature trees that surround the property. A large den extends off the Family Room and makes a great space that can easily serve as a living room, game room, home office, fitness area, or playroom.
The spacious dining room open to the kitchen that combines functionality and style with abundant cabinetry, ample countertop space, and stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, dishwasher, and microwave that were all replaced just a few months ago. Whether you're preparing everyday meals or entertaining guests, this space is ready for it all.
The lower level provides valuable storage space plus the laundry room and a full bathroom.
One of the standout features of this property is the exceptional backyard. Rarely do you find a yard of this size that is both level and beautifully shaded by mature trees.

Major updates provide added peace of mind, including a new roof (2021), hot water tank (2022), and furnace (2023), allowing buyers to move in with confidence. The one-car garage and additional driveway parking add everyday convenience.
Conveniently located just minutes from shopping, dining, parks, schools, and major highways, this home offers an easy commute to Downtown Pittsburgh, the North Hills, and beyond while maintaining the charm and feel of a quiet residential neighborhood.
