Property Description

Romantic Rare Richardsonian Romanesque multi-unit and multi-storied building stands above its neighbors in the Historic Mexican War Streets. Three luxury units are recently renovated full-floor one bedroom apartments each with newly updated kitchens with quartz counters, stainless appliances and in-unit laundry. Baths include walk-in showers. Rooms are spacious and filled with light from multiple windows. Original 1880's mantels grace living rooms and a kitchen. The first floor unit includes original pocket doors. A fourth unit in the lower level awaits renovation by new owner. New permitted fire escape also allows access to backyard garden courtyard from each unit. A detached garage has fit two cars. As winter approaches, the courtyard awaits the return of planters filled with flowers. The stone front features a spacious tiled "front porch" unique in the Mexican War Streets which is lovely for morning coffee or an "adult" beverage at the end of the day. Stonework features two glorious green men carvings which are rare on private homes. Richardsonian Romanesque architecture is recognized by its grandeur, intricacy, sculpted shapes, archways and asymmetrical design. This eclectic style, created in the late 1800s, gives a sense of permanence and uniqueness to buildings that make them stand out, even among other historic, elegant buildings. Easy access to Downtown, North Shore, sport venues, art venues and all that is happening in Pittsburgh and the surrounds.
