Nestled in the heart of Pittsburgh’s vibrant South Side neighborhood, this remarkable 12,000-square-foot building, originally constructed in 1880 as part of St. Peter's Catholic Parish, exudes historical charm and functional versatility. Once serving as a rectory and convent, it now thrives as a non-profit community home and office space. The stately all-brick exterior is a testament to its enduring craftsmanship, while an elevator enhances accessibility throughout the property. Inside, the space is both dynamic and inviting, featuring a unique bowling alley in the lower level, a blend of office and living areas, as well as kitchens tailored for both staff and residents. With three dedicated parking spaces and a location just steps from the bustling restaurants and shops of South Side Works, this property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Pittsburgh’s rich history, perfectly poised for continued community impact or creative reimagining.
