About This Home
Welcome to our 2 bedroom and 1 bathroom house in the heart of Squirrel Hill, perfectly located half a block from Frick park! This house has lots of its original features–including original hardwood flooring–combined with a modern updated kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen has been designed by owners to feel warm and welcoming with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and custom wood details so the space is highly functional and enjoyable for cooking and entertaining. The kitchen and the dining room are the heart of this house and bring family and friends together. The updated bathroom has a combined soaking tub and shower, custom tiling and a hand-blown glass light fixture. The front bedroom gets lots of daylight. The backyard patio has been updated recently and can be an extension of your dining room during nice weather. Front patio is covered and overlooks the sloped front yard, that has plenty of space if you wish to grow flowers or your own vegetables for fun. The house has central heat and A/C, a whole house air filter, and an optional whole house water filter (tenant must be willing to change filters). Basement contains on-site washer and dryer, and has shelving for storing your extra belongings. This house is in such a great location! It’s walking distance to Squirrel Hill shops and stores, and half a block from Frick park (great hiking and mountain biking) and the Blue Slide playground, basketball, baseball + pickleball courts and is also a hot spot for wintertime sledding for the kids. Plenty of free on-street parking. The neighborhood is pretty quiet and a perfect place for young professionals and families.

Nestled between Schenley Park and Frick Park in the city's East End, Squirrel Hill is considered one of Pittsburgh's most popular neighborhoods. Although the city divides the neighborhood into Squirrel Hill North and Squirrel Hill South, locals tend to treat the area as one sprawling entity.
Squirrel Hill South's stability remains part of its appeal, as do its rolling hills, walkable business district on Murray Avenue, excellent schools, and tranquil streets. With homes ranging from mid-rise apartments to ornate mansions, rental options are available for a wide variety of different tastes and budgets.
Squirrel Hill South's historic charm combined with an easy-going attitude makes it a great place to live. Proximity to multiple universities makes the community an ideal location for students, faculty, and staff. Carnegie Mellon University and Chatham University sit in Squirrel Hill North, and to the west lies the University of Pittsburgh in Oakland.
