Move-in ready 1925 two-story colonial in the Fox Chapel Area School District — completely renovated inside with fresh paint and updated fixtures throughout. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers 1,200 square feet of comfortable living, including a main-floor dining room, entry foyer, and living room, plus nice-sized closets in the upstairs bedrooms. Enjoy both a front porch and a back porch — perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxing — along with a nice-sized yard that's just been freshly landscaped and mulched. The front porch has been freshly painted with new railings and offers great views, giving the home wonderful curb appeal from the street. Downstairs, the basement is clean, dry, and freshly painted, with glass block windows and a sump pump in good working condition — giving you peace of mind along with the lower-level laundry setup. Location is a highlight here too — walk to everything the little town of Blawnox has to offer, including shops, hair salons, and restaurants, and minutes away from the river. Two on-street parking spaces and easy access to public transportation round out this well-located, thoroughly updated home — a great option for buyers looking for something truly turnkey.
