Gibsonia blends suburban charm with city convenience
In the suburban North Hills of Pittsburgh, Gibsonia is a small community known for its highly rated schools and convenient access to shopping and dining. "The North Hills is a happening area with lots of new construction. There are lots of new stores, lots of new restaurants and things to do with your family. It's a booming area," says Jason Moots, a Realtor at Achieve Realty with 25 years of experience. "You get a private rural setting, but you're so close to everything. It's just polluted with stores and high-end retail." Pennsylvania Route 8 is nearby and has some shopping, but McKnight Road is the primary commercial corridor of the area. In addition to shopping and dining, nearby parks and major highways round out Gibsonia as an ideal spot for buyers looking to stay connected to Pittsburgh without the city traffic.
Gibsonia residents enjoy access to schools and nearby shopping.
Properties in Gibsonia often feature spacious half-acre lots.

Large lots and a mix of classic home styles in suburban Pittsburgh
New Traditional homes, Colonial Revivals and Cape Cods comprise most of Gibsonia's housing. They are often on suburban streets with sidewalks that offer walkability. Neatly manicured lawns and leafy trees add curb appeal to the homes. Properties are spacious, with a median lot size of just over a half-acre. "When you pay $500,000 to $2 million for a house, you actually get land with it. You're not right up against your neighbor in this area," Moots says. Some areas feel more rural, with dense foliage lining the roads and gently rolling hills. The median sales price for a single-family home is around $510,000, higher than in some nearby areas but lower than in Pine.
Colonial Revival homes appear frequently throughout Gibsonia.
New Traditional homes are common in Gibsonia neighborhoods.

Route 8 and I-79 make travel simple
Gibsonia gives residents easy drives into Pittsburgh. "The commute to downtown is under a half-hour from here. The commute to the airport is under a half-hour. Traffic to both flows really easy," Moots says. Route 8 leads about 17 miles south to downtown, while Interstate 79 and I-376 offer a 34-mile drive to the airport. The Pennsylvania Turnpike is also nearby, providing an east-west highway across the commonwealth. The closest hospital is UPMC Passavant-McCandless, about 6 miles away.
