237 40th Street represents the epitome of elevated Lawrenceville living - a meticulous 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence with a private backyard and coveted two-car parking. Offered for the first time in 17 years, the semi-detached home showcases a transformative, owner-driven renovation where thoughtful craftsmanship and high-end finishes appeal to buyers seeking the finer things. Positioned in the heart of Lawrenceville, Arsenal Park unfolds just parallel to the home, while Butler Street’s 20+ block commercial corridor places Pittsburgh’s best shopping and dining steps away. The handsome abode makes an immediate impression with extensive exterior improvements including Versa-Lok retaining walls and upgraded masonry. Inside, showroom-level finishes maintain approachable comfort. The living room centers around a stone fireplace with refinished hardwoods underfoot, while a triple-pane picture window allows you to enjoy city views in quiet. The showstopping eat-in kitchen accesses both the backyard and basement. A parade of upgrades, including custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and premium LG appliances, allows you to entertain in style - whether hosting a bustling gathering or a romantic meal for two. Upstairs, two comfortable bedrooms include a king-sized primary with generous closet storage, while the secondary bedroom functions equally well as a guest room or home office. The modernized hall bath with tile-surround shower flaunts curated designer finishes. Discover an additional full bath and versatile space for a home gym or studio setup in the full-height basement. Outside, the yard flanked by privacy fencing continues the home’s polished aesthetic, featuring a 12’ x 12’ deck and sought-after two-car parking. Located just 3 miles from Downtown Pittsburgh and moments from UPMC Children’s Hospital, Carnegie Mellon University, and the University of Pittsburgh, this one-of-a-kind property delivers a rare combination of luxury, functionality, and location.
