A burgeoning township outside of Pittsburgh
Chartiers Township is a quickly evolving rural area on the cusp of southwestern Pittsburgh's suburban residential developments. Situated close to Canonsburg and Interstate 79, the exurb offers convenience to modern amenities and commercial hot spots like the Tanger Outlets, while giving residents more space than properties closer to the city. "Homes here are more spread out with spacious yards, but very close to amenities," says Jordan Schramm, Realtor at RE/MAX Select Realty. New residential construction in burgeoning subdivisions provides a suburban lifestyle amidst the rural setting of Washington County.

A blend of established small cottages and new Colonial Revival styles
