    Set along a gently curving drive in Sewickley Heights, this beautifully maintained brick ranch offers rare one-level living on approximately five acres just minutes from the shops and restaurants of Sewickley Village. Mature trees, sweeping lawn, and a private setting create the quiet beauty and space that define life in Sewickley Heights. Arriving home feels unhurried and private, with the long approach revealing a residence that sits comfortably within its landscape. Inside, hardwood floors and a thoughtfully designed floor plan connect elegant entertaining spaces with comfortable everyday living. The ease of one-level living allows daily life to unfold naturally, with rooms that flow easily from one to the next and views of the surrounding landscape at every turn. The remodeled eat-in kitchen forms the heart of the home, featuring custom white cabinetry, marble countertops, and an oversized center island. Sub-Zero refrigeration and a Viking professional gas range complement generous prep space and a large island with prep sink, creating a kitchen designed for both cooking and gathering. Whether preparing a quiet weeknight dinner or hosting friends for a relaxed evening, the kitchen invites people to linger and connect. The living room and dining room offer bright, welcoming spaces for entertaining, with a fireplace, French doors, and peaceful views of the surrounding grounds. Natural light fills these rooms throughout the day, while the landscape beyond provides a calm, ever-changing backdrop. A sun-filled family room addition with floor-to-ceiling windows showcases the home’s extraordinary setting and opens naturally to the outdoor entertaining spaces beyond. Here the connection to the landscape becomes part of everyday life, with the changing seasons and sweeping lawn always in view. A cozy den or home office with built-ins and a fireplace provides a quiet retreat for reading, working from home, or simply enjoying a slower moment. The home’s layout allows spaces to feel connected yet comfortably separate, supporting both lively gatherings and quiet evenings. The primary suite enjoys serene backyard views and a fully remodeled marble bath with walk-in shower and custom vanity. Additional bedrooms offer generous proportions, hardwood floors, and beautifully updated baths, including a private guest suite with its own ensuite bath and walk-in closet, allowing visiting family and friends to feel comfortably at home. Supporting spaces are thoughtfully designed, including a remodeled laundry room with folding space and storage, a convenient mudroom entry from the attached garage, and multiple powder rooms for guests. Outdoor living is equally inviting. An expansive rear patio with retractable awning and a built-in brick grill creates an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond, the rolling lawn and mature trees extend across the home’s five-acre property, offering exceptional privacy and the park-like landscape that distinguishes Sewickley Heights properties. The grounds provide space to walk, garden, relax in the shade of mature trees, or simply enjoy the quiet beauty that surrounds the home. With gracious one-level living, beautifully remodeled interiors, and five acres of private Sewickley Heights grounds, this home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy refined living in one of the Pittsburgh region’s most sought-after communities. Life in Sewickley Heights offers a rare balance of privacy, natural beauty, and community. Just minutes away, Sewickley Village brings together charming shops, local cafés, restaurants, and cultural events that make everyday life both convenient and engaging. The area is known for its scenic roads, active outdoor lifestyle, and strong sense of community, creating a setting where neighbors connect, traditions flourish, and each season brings something new to enjoy.
