MOVE-IN READY! This classic early 1900s Colonial has been thoughtfully renovated by the original builder’s great-grandsons - a rare blend of historic integrity and modern updates. Ideally located just only a few blocks from Walnut Street in Shadyside, this home places you in the heart of one of Pittsburgh’s most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods. Morning coffee runs, dinner alfresco, boutique shopping, fresh baked goods - it’s all right outside your door. Yet the home itself feels private and grounded, offering that perfect balance of energy and retreat. The inviting covered front porch is ideal for slow mornings, evening unwinding, and yes - keeping those packages dry. Inside, the sun-filled living room flows seamlessly into the dining room and beautifully renovated kitchen, fully equipped with modern finishes and counter seating for casual meals or entertaining. A custom built-in in the dining room creates the perfect coffee bar, wine station, or serving area — designed for how you live. Classic Mission-style moldings and oversized windows fill the home with natural light while honoring its architectural roots. A first-floor powder room and rear mud entry add everyday convenience. With newer baths, kitchen, roof, and major updates already completed, this home is truly turnkey. And the standout bonus? Two dedicated off-street parking spaces in the rear — an exceptional find in this sought-after location. Timeless character. Unmatched walkability. Effortless living.
