Description

Brick Cape Cod in Penn Hills offers three bedrooms, one and a half baths, and nearly 1,900 square feet of finished living space, including a 700-square-foot lower level. The current owners invested where it counts most, from a new interior sewer line and lined exterior sewer to gas-service upgrades, whole-house surge protection, and UV air purification throughout the HVAC ductwork. A deep, level backyard and integral garage complete the picture.

Tiered stone walls and a Japanese maple frame the front entry, where a bold blue Craftsman-style door sets a cheerful tone. Inside, hardwood floors flow through the living and dining spaces. The adjoining kitchen pairs gray shaker cabinetry with stone countertops, a patterned tile backsplash, and stainless appliances including a gas range. Beyond, the enclosed sunroom has been reimagined with whitewashed brick, a planked ceiling, and a decorative fireplace. Windows on three sides make it an ideal reading room, playroom, or home office.

A main-floor primary bedroom offers single-level convenience. The renovated full hall bath is wrapped in marble-look tile with a built-in niche. Tucked beneath the roof pitches above, two additional bedrooms retain hardwood floors and generous closet storage, and a half bath serves the home.

Downstairs, the finished family room is outfitted with new carpeting, recessed lighting, and wainscoting. A dedicated laundry area with new flooring, a utility sink, and washer and dryer adjoins a storage room lined with shelving.

Out back, the sprawling lawn is the cherry on top. Raised garden beds, flowering perennials, a Kousa dogwood, and a storage shed reward the owners’ years of organic lawn care, with plenty of room left to play or entertain. A Vivint security system adds peace of mind, and the home sits within easy reach of Penn Hills shopping, Route 380, and I-376 to Downtown Pittsburgh.
