Great schools, large lots, and small-town vibes — the North Huntingdon township is a safe and quiet community tucked into the hills of Westmoreland County, about 20 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.
Commercial corridor Route 30, also known as the Lincoln Highway, bisects the community, providing easy access to shopping plazas with convenient retailers, fast food chains and restaurants. It connects to Interstate 375 as well, which is the main way folks get to Pittsburgh. Folks can also utilize the Westmoreland Transit bus stops on this thoroughfare and the park-and-ride lot on the corner of Route 30 and Carpenter Lane.
As for local flavor, Rodney’s is always jumping during dinner time. Since 1995, this Italian-American family restaurant has become a community staple, offering all the quality and care of upscale dining in a laid-back, welcoming environment. Whether it’s a family dinner or a date night, be sure to bring your appetite because the portions here are no joke.
Now for the residential side of things. The streets of North Huntingdon are lined by mature flora, including gorgeous oak and maple trees. Though this township lies in the heart of suburbia, pockets of woods dapple the map, giving a rustic feel to many properties and green spaces. While you can find homes in North Huntingdon that date back as early as the 1830s, most homes here are midcentury charmers, early 2000s stunners or new construction properties. Yet despite all the varying architectural generations, the township maintains a relatively cohesive aesthetic. Colonial Revivals and brick ranch-style homes are the leading designs, along with many split-level and raised ranch-style properties, thanks to all the hills in the landscape. These houses typically sit on at least a quarter- or half-acre lot, but full-acre and some multi-acre lots are also in the community. Listing prices range from $116,000 to $780,000, and the $277,327 could land you a three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence.
Residents of North Huntingdon can easily escape into nature thanks to the parks strewn about the area, two of which feature great fishing spots for any local anglers. First up is Indian Lake Park, a dog-friendly spot with a nice loop around its fishing lake and a little trail through the woodlands behind it. As its name would indicate, Braddocks Trail Park is a woodsy green space crisscrossed by winding nature trails.
