Located in the beautifully restored Fifth Avenue School Lofts, this expansive loft-style apartment offers approximately 945 square feet of open living space in one of Uptown's most distinctive historic buildings. Originally a school, the property blends preserved Gothic architecture with contemporary finishes and amenities, all within minutes of Downtown Pittsburgh, Duquesne University, UPMC Mercy, the South Side, and Oakland.
Unlike a traditional one-bedroom apartment, this loft features a spacious open floor plan with exceptional flexibility for living, working, and entertaining. Oversized windows flood the space with natural light, while designer lighting and custom window treatments add a polished finish. The contemporary kitchen is equipped with granite countertops, maple cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, built-in microwave, and a large island that serves as both a breakfast bar and gathering space.
