About This Home

As of March 2023

This huge family house is one of Mt. Lebanon's beautifully-kept architectural treasures. Featuring a spacious front porch w/swing, large welcoming entrance through French-style doors, coffered 1st floor ceilings, an elegant mantled living room fireplace (w/wood stove for efficient winter heating), a warm dining room for large gatherings and a newer kitchen (in harmony with the style of the early 20th century w/2017 amenities) make this house very special! Also, the 1st floor has conveniences which include a stylish 1/2 bath, large mud and laundry rooms & access to the large double-wide attached garage. In the back, there's a lovely private patio w/a large cement pad for year round activities. Upstairs, the 2nd floor boasts 3 character-filled bedrooms & full bath. Continuing to the 3rd floor, you'll find 4 more high-ceilinged bedrooms & full bath too. It's location is close to all things that make Mt. Lebanon a fantastic place to live: Uptown restaurants, schools and park.
