Property Description

Grand Highland Park residence evokes Pittsburgh elegance of a bygone era, offering 7 bedrooms and 2.5 baths across 3,900 square feet. The 19th-century abode celebrates its remarkable architectural heritage without sacrificing modern-day livability, just one block from Bryant Street shopping and dining. A stately red-brick façade commands the corner lot. Towering columns frame an expansive front porch before double doors reveal a dramatic center hall. Inside, restored millwork, leaded and stained glass, inlaid hardwood floors, pocket doors, and ornate fireplace surrounds unfold throughout. The front living rooms showcase exceptional scale, anchored by elaborate fireplaces and built-in cabinetry. Beyond, a spectacular dining room flows through a walk-in butler's pantry to the kitchen, where colorful cabinetry, stone countertops, and a center island provide a playful counterpoint to the home's historic character. A stylish powder room completes the level. Floor two hosts four generously sized bedrooms retaining original details, plus a full hall bath. Cleverly repurposed from the former secondary staircase, a dedicated office adds unexpected functionality. Above, the sprawling third floor offers a bedroom, sitting room, office, oversized laundry/workroom, and renovated full bath—an ideal private primary retreat. A covered back porch extends the living space outdoors, while a dedicated driveway and detached two-car garage provide coveted off-street parking. Perfectly positioned near Highland Park and the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium, the location offers convenient Route 28 access and a 15-minute drive to Downtown Pittsburgh.
