n the heart of Oakland, where museums, libraries, renowned universities, medical centers, and some of Pittsburgh's most beloved restaurants all converge, University Square offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the energy of city living with the ease of a thoughtfully managed community. Unit 221 is a beautifully maintained two-bedroom residence highlighted by one of the building's most sought-after amenities—a private covered balcony. Large enough for outdoor seating, it offers the perfect setting to enjoy your morning coffee, unwind at the end of the day, or simply take in the energy and activity of Fifth Avenue below.Inside, a welcoming entry foyer with a spacious walk-in storage closet creates a sense of arrival before opening into bright, comfortable living spaces designed for everyday living and entertaining alike. Parquet hardwood floors add warmth and character, while the generous living room flows seamlessly to the balcony, allowing natural light and fresh air to become part of the home's daily experience. The kitchen has been thoughtfully refreshed with white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances and opens to a dedicated dining area—a feature becoming increasingly rare in today's floor plans. Whether hosting friends, enjoying a quiet meal at home, or gathering before an evening in the city, the space feels both practical and inviting. Both bedrooms are generously sized, offering flexibility for guests, work-from-home needs, or simply room to spread out. The primary bedroom features a large walk-in closet, while the updated bath offers clean, timeless finishes. Individual heating and cooling units throughout the home allow for personalized comfort in every season. Life at University Square extends well beyond your front door. Residents enjoy secure building access, 24-hour valet service, free laundry facilities, guest parking, designated storage unit and a beautifully landscaped courtyard tucked behind the building. With gathering spaces, grills, and mature landscaping, it's the perfect place to relax with neighbors, entertain visitors, or simply enjoy a little sunshine without leaving home. As a cooperative community, University Square offers a low-maintenance lifestyle with all real estate taxes and utilities included in the monthly fee, providing a unique opportunity to enjoy one of Pittsburgh's most dynamic neighborhoods in a way that is both convenient and approachable. Just outside your door, Oakland's cultural institutions, universities, hospitals, parks, and restaurants create an environment unlike anywhere else in the city.
