Updated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Squirrel Hill residence offers nearly 2,000 square feet across three finished levels, a dedicated driveway, and a detached garage. The handsome brick exterior sets the stage for recent cosmetic updates and preserved architectural character inside.
Hardwood floors run through the front living room, where a broad three-panel window draws in natural light. Built-in shelving flanks the fireplace, while the original iron stair railing adds a vintage moment. Beyond, the dining room showcases a coffered ceiling, built-in display shelving, and a tucked-away window-seat nook. The adjoining eat-in kitchen has been modernized with stone countertops and painted cabinetry, lending the main level a midcentury-inspired eclectic sensibility. A powder room completes the floor.
Floor two hosts three bedrooms and two full baths, including one bedroom with a private ensuite and a separate hall bath. Original wood doors and trim continue throughout, joined by colorful stained glass at the stair landing. Above, the third floor is dedicated to a generously sized fourth bedroom, creating a private retreat away from the remaining sleeping spaces.
Outside, a managable lawn connects to the garage and off-street parking. The location puts Murray Avenue’s restaurants, cafés, and Squirrel Hill business district within a short walk, with I-376 access and Frick Park just a two-minute drive.
