6539 Wilkins Ave is the kind of home that just feels right the moment you walk in...
Minutes from Frick Park and Schenley Park… close to the energy of Forbes and Murray Ave… and surrounded by some of Pittsburgh’s most established institutions, including the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon, Duquesne and Chatham.
Throughout the home, hardwood floors carry a sense of warmth and continuity… while the layout gives you room to live, work, and gather in a way that actually fits your day-to-day life.
The sunroom offers a quiet corner that easily becomes a home office, reading space, or place to slow down for a few minutes.
Natural light pours into the primary bedroom through skylights set into vaulted ceilings… creating a space that feels calm, open, and set apart from everything else.
With 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a finished basement, there’s flexibility here… whether that means hosting, creating a second living space, or simply having room to spread out.
Outside, the patio creates space to unwind or have people over… and the detached garage adds convenience that’s hard to overlook. Solar panels bring an added layer of efficiency… something we’re seeing matter more and more.
And then there’s everything around it…
It’s a home that gives you space to live… in a location that keeps you connected to it all.
