Truly the best of both worlds, this home offers all the privacy & serenity of Sewickley Heights, yet is just minutes from Sewickley Village. Stunning views of the Ohio River, in almost every room. Extensive upgrades have been made to the home in just the last year, from a kitchen renovation -including new granite countertops, Wolf ovens, & many other upgrades - to a refreshed master suite (including a new closet organization system), new flooring in several rooms, as well as new paint & window treatments throughout. The lower level is great for family needs with a bedroom suite with renovated full bath perfect for an au pair/guest suite/in-law suite.
Wonderful for entertaining, newly renovated bar area in the family room, spacious living and dining rooms, wonderful wrap around deck that affords sensational views of the grounds, pool and the river. Views, views, views! This home offers incredible sight lines from almost every room, perhaps even the best views in Sewickley Heights!
