140 Witherow Rd, Bell Acres, PA 15143

Property Description

Set along one of Bell Acres' prettiest wooded streets, 140 Witherow is a Dutch Colonial with the architectural character, generous proportions, and beautiful setting that make a house worth falling for. Nearly an acre of mature trees and open lawn surrounds a home filled with details worth preserving: richly refinished hardwood floors on the main level, French doors, traditional millwork, two fireplaces, and windows that bring the outdoors into nearly every room. Built with a nod to classic Colonial architecture, it offers something increasingly difficult to find: an established home with a sense of history, room to grow, and the freedom to make it distinctly yours. The living room is especially pretty, with paneled millwork surrounding the fireplace and proportions that feel gracious without becoming formal. Across the hall, the family room offers a cozier retreat, with exposed ceiling beams and a second fireplace. At the heart of the first floor, the kitchen features white cabinetry, black granite counters, newer appliances, and a central island, with easy connections to the dining room, main-floor laundry, and adjoining living spaces. For those with an eye for design, the kitchen offers an opportunity to create something entirely their own, whether through a simple cosmetic refresh or a more ambitious reimagining. Upstairs, four bedrooms feature hardwood floors and wooded outlooks. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a recently updated white marble bath with glass shower. A second full bath serves the remaining bedrooms, with a separately enclosed tub area. The full unfinished basement offers generous storage and possibilities for future use, while the attached two-car garage adds everyday convenience. Outside, the house settles beautifully into its surroundings. The 42,209-square-foot corner lot is framed by established oaks, a broad lawn, and a gently curving wooded street where homes appear gradually through the trees. A spacious composite deck invites outdoor dining and entertaining, complete with a gas grill connected to a gas line. An invisible fence is also in place. There's room here to garden, play, entertain, or simply enjoy the changing seasons. Close to Sewickley Heights Golf Club, a short drive to Sewickley Village, and convenient to Pittsburgh International Airport, 140 Witherow offers a peaceful setting without feeling far removed from everyday life. There's plenty to appreciate as it stands, and even more to imagine. A fresh palette, thoughtful updates, and your own finishing touches could bring a new chapter to a home already rich with character. Morning tea on the front porch, holidays around the dining room, long summer evenings on the deck, and quiet afternoons watching the birds in the backyard. The setting, the architecture, the space, and the possibilities are all here. The next chapter is yours to write. Come, take a tour.
