1843 Boulevard Of The Allies, Pittsburgh, PA 15219

Fixer-upper in an up-and-coming neighborhood; would make great a live/work space or rental. There are magnificent views of the Southside and the Mon River from the 2nd and 3rd floor windows, which face south, offering tremendous light. The house has been largely gutted, but needs more work. Luckily, much of the original woodwork is intact. From this location, one can walk to Downtown, Oakland, Southside, and the Jail Trail; near Mercy Hospital and Duquesne University, and on major bus lines. No utilities; bring flashlight and measuring tape. The owner is motivated to sell -- bring all offers. Call Helen Perilloux at 412-915-6865 to schedule a showing. Neighborhood Description Uptown is undergoing a renaissance, finally. Several new housing developments are under way or completed (like the Fifth Avenue High School Lofts), and people are moving into the neighborhood once again. It's getting tough to find fixer-uppers here. You'll find and interesting mix of families, students, medical workers, and artists working and living in the neighborhood. The local coffee shop, River City Java, just reopened at 1919 Forbes.
