Suburban living in the Gateway to Westmoreland County
Just outside of Allegheny County, Murrysville is known as the “Gateway to Westmoreland County.” A brick sign along U.S. Route 22 proudly displays that motto, and those driving into the suburb from the west will also pass by a tree sign with hundreds of towering evergreens spelling out “Murrysville.” The sign was originally planted by a group of local Boy Scouts in the 1930s and continues to serve as a source of pride for the community nearly a century later. The Y in the sign also honors Murrysville’s rich industrial history and points to the site of the former Haymaker Gas Well, the first commercial natural gas well in the country. While Murrysville is no longer a hub for the natural gas industry, it’s home to just under 21,000 people and is now a sought-after suburb surrounding the U.S. Route 22 corridor. Also known as William Penn Highway, US 22 provides access to Pittsburgh, about 20 miles away. “Murrysville is a very popular area for commuters,” says Sara Leitera, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices The Preferred Realty with more than 18 years of experience in the industry. “You’re right in the center of things, so it’s a good in-between spot.” In addition to its central location and highway access, Murrysville is part of the top-rated Franklin Regional School District, which Niche ranks as the best school district in Westmoreland County. “Franklin Regional is pretty popular and well-known,” Leitera says.

Murrysville offers a mix of housing styles, options and price tags
Covering just under 37 square miles, Murrysville contains a wide variety of architectural styles and housing options. Ranch-style and bi-level homes are the norm in more established neighborhoods, while New Traditional and custom-built properties are common in newer subdivisions. “You can get a house that has a good amount of yard space with businesses and restaurants nearby,” Leitera says. The median price of single-family homes is around $385,000, comparable to the national average of just under $419,000. Home prices accommodate an array of budgets, with older homes selling for less than $300,000 and newer construction fetching upwards of $700,000. Townhouse developments sit around the outskirts of town, and townhouses typically sell for about $230,000. With a range of prices and plenty of listings, the housing market tends to be less competitive, and most properties sell after an average of two months on the market.
