About this home
Fully Renovated East End Home | Five Bedrooms | Three Full Bathrooms and One Half Bath | Off-Street Parking | Walkable to Whole Foods, Highland Park, and East Liberty
Located just off Negley Avenue and East Liberty Boulevard, this beautifully renovated East End residence blends early 20th-century craftsmanship with modern design, systems, and flexibility. Originally constructed in 1920, the home underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2022, preserving historic charm while introducing a full suite of upgrades, including a new roof, Pella aluminum-clad wood windows, all-new electrical and plumbing, and a new HVAC system. Under current ownership, the basement was professionally waterproofed, and a new sewer line was installed. Additional upgrades include a dedicated air conditioning unit for the third floor and a security system with cameras included.
Spanning three finished levels, the home offers five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and one half bath, plus off-street parking and a private fenced yard. A vestibule entry leads into a warm and spacious interior where original architectural details shine—wainscoting, decorative fireplaces, an elegant staircase, and original woodwork speak to the home’s storied past.
The open main floor features inviting living and dining areas that flow into a chef’s kitchen appointed with granite countertops, a center island, convection double wall ovens, a gas range, microwave, pot filler, wine refrigerator, and ice maker. A main-level powder room adds everyday convenience. At the rear, a 300+ square foot deck overlooks a 900-square-foot yard enclosed by a horizontal wooden fence—ideal for outdoor dining, gardening, or pets.
Upstairs, the second floor features three bedrooms, including a well-appointed primary suite with dual closets—one a walk-in with built-in shelving—a spa-style bath with soaking tub, rainhead shower, and double vanity. A second full bathroom and a centrally located second-floor laundry complete this level. The third floor includes two more bedrooms or flexible office spaces, plus another full bathroom. All bedrooms are outfitted with blackout shades for privacy and comfort.
Walkable to Whole Foods Market, Highland Park, Farm Fresh Halal Market, The Environmental Charter School, Barack Obama Academy of International Studies, Redstart Roasters, Commonplace Coffee, and The Home Depot, with easy access to the shops and restaurants of East Liberty. Also minutes from Carnegie Mellon University, University of Pittsburgh, Chatham University, Carlow University, Google, and Duolingo. Nearby, the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium and Penn Avenue Arts and Commercial District provide year-round culture and recreation. The home is just blocks from “Unblurred: First Fridays on Penn,” a monthly art crawl organized by the Penn Avenue Arts Initiative. Quick access to Downtown Pittsburgh, Lawrenceville, Shadyside, and Route 28 makes this home as connected as it is comfortable.
