5715 Beacon St

A midrise condominium complex constructed in 1984, Beacon Place serves as an age-restricted residential community in Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood. The building houses primarily one-bedroom floorplans with occasional den/2-bedroom layouts, each arranged around a central corridor and served by elevator access. Interiors typically feature generous closet storage, windowed living areas, modest kitchens with pantry space, and walk-in or accessible showers in many units; several residences include private balconies. Shared spaces are extensive for a building of its scale and include a staffed or styled lobby, a fitness room, library, multipurpose party/game room, and an outdoor patio. On-site conveniences comprise laundry facilities, storage lockers in the basement, and parking (usually assigned or paid separately). The homeowners association covers water, sewer, trash, on-site management and common-area upkeep. Pet and service-animal rules follow the 62+ community designation; buildings accept service animals and admit residents under age exceptions for ADA eligibility. Located within a block of Murray Avenue’s shops, transit stops, supermarkets and weekly farmers market, the property emphasizes low-maintenance, walkable living with building staff and amenity support tailored to older adults.
