This is a fully updated home where the historic charm has been preserved without asking you to sacrifice modern convenience. All-brick construction, four bedrooms, huge living spaces, garage, off-street parking, central air, updated kitchen and bath, original stained glass and woodworking. From the moment you walk up, the stately brick exterior, brand-new porch columns, new metal porch roof, and spacious concrete front porch make quite the first impression.
Step inside and you’ll find a huge first floor featuring wide-plank waterproof luxury vinyl flooring, brand-new shaker cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers, gorgeous granite countertops with an undermount sink, and brand-new stainless-steel appliances—including a massive double-door refrigerator that may finally give you enough room for all those leftovers. The kitchen is exceptionally large, with additional storage and plenty of space for cooking, entertaining, or simply gathering around the heart of the home. A first-floor powder room features a clever hidden pocket door that adds a fun little touch of character.
The home has been thoughtfully updated with brand-new LED lighting throughout while preserving its historic personality. Three original stained glass windows, charming original woodworking, and a decorative fireplace provide the kind of details that simply can’t be recreated in a new build. Fresh carpet has been installed throughout the second and third floors, while brand-new central air provides the modern comfort you’ll appreciate on Pittsburgh’s warmer days. Newer electrical service and plumbing updates ensure full functionality for today's needs.
Upstairs, the second floor offers three generously sized bedrooms, each with ample closet space, along with a completely reimagined full bathroom featuring marble-style tile flooring and a beautifully updated tub surround. Continue to the third floor and you’ll discover a fourth bedroom with brand-new electric baseboard heat plus a separate sitting area that could easily become a home office, reading nook, dressing area—or, if your closet ambitions are high enough, possibly the world’s largest walk-in closet.
The walk-out basement is absolutely huge, offering tons of storage space and plenty of potential to finish in the future. Outside, enjoy a spacious back patio that’s ready for grilling, entertaining, or family activities, along with an attached storage area conveniently located off the back deck.
And then there’s the garage—a rare find in this neighborhood! It features fresh paint and a brand-new electronic garage door opener, plus a concrete driveway providing plenty of off-street parking.
Best of all, you’re just steps from Broadway Avenue, with its restaurants, entertainment, and neighborhood amenities, plus the “T” station for an easy commute into Downtown Pittsburgh.
Historic character. Modern comfort. Tons of space. A garage. Come see what makes this Beechview home so special!
