Life along the Yougiogheny
Greenock has plenty of green space to offer from the expansive lawns to a scenic trail along the Youghiogheny River, locally known as The Yough. “It’s a suburb that still has a rural feel since homebuyers have more land there,” says Alecia DiMatteo, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices who has lived in the area her whole life. The river is known for being a key location of the French and Indian War, also known as the Seven Years War, where the first shots were fired. Today, the river brings in not tourists as well as longtime residents. “Many outdoorsy people move here since the river is nearby,” says Kim Stotlemyer, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty, who has been selling homes in the area for nearly two decades. There’s also a well-regarded golf club nearby that attracts homebuyers, the Youghiogheny Country Club, Stotlemyer says.
The Youghiogheny River makes up most of the border of Greenock.
