(Undisclosed Address), Pittsburgh, PA 15211

The perfect base in Mt. Washington for exploring and working in Pittsburgh, with lots of space & an unobstructed view of the city so amazing that you'll be posting it on your social media pages. What you'll love about it: * Stunning view of PGH downtown * Garage, free street parking & space for 1 car off-street * Fully stocked kitchen * Hi-speed WiFi * New mattresses, high quality bedding & towels * Rec room w/ 70" TV * Balconies & yard * Quiet & peaceful while close to everything The space This townhouse is perched on the edge of the Mt. Washington hill, on the site of what used to be one of the many Pittsburgh inclines. With a perfect and unobstructed view of downtown Pittsburgh, you'll find yourself neglecting the beautiful rooms, comfortable beds, and clean and welcoming spaces in this house as you continue to get drawn back to the windows and balconies where you can sit and take in the amazing city that is Pittsburgh. (the views of the city from Mt. Washington have been ranked as the most breathtaking views in Pennsylvania by the Insider and among the best cityscape views in the world by USA Today - and your view from the balcony is about as perfect as it gets in Mt Washington) PARKING There is a (narrow) 1-car garage, that can be opened from the inside. There is also space for 1 car to park in the driveway to the garage off-street. On-street parking is free and not usually difficult to find. HOUSE LAYOUT On the main level of the house, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen with a coffee bar and a breakfast bar with charging ports so you can relax and sip your coffee or tea while catching up on news on your device. The dining room boasts a beautiful dining table hand-made by Amy's dad that comfortably fits eight, that opens into a welcoming living room with a cushy sofa that can turn into a full-size bed. There's a 50" TV here, but we can't imagine you'd ever use it as the living room opens into an insta-gram worthy view of Pittsburgh and a balcony to sit and enjoy that view. Heading upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms and one full bathroom with a shower/tub combo. The first bedroom offers a king sized bed, small sofa (that opens into a twin sized bed), and a desk with chair. The balcony is an amazing place to sit while taking in the perfect view. The second spacious bedroom offers a queen sized bed as well as a futon. Going another level up, the 3rd bedroom in this house is a loft suite with a king bed and sitting area with that view. It has a newly renovated bathroom with a Japanese-style soaker tub (small but deep) and shower. All of the mattresses are new, and the bedding is new and higher quality (hotel quality sheets/100% cotton duvets) Heading all the way back down, the basement level of the house offers access to the small backyard with patio table and chairs. Inside enjoy the 70" TV and large comfortable sofa that also converts to a bed. There's a powder room down here as well as a washer and drying for laundry. Our newest addition to the house is a small gym in the back of the garage level. This is a *use at your own risk* convenience. We also recommend that if the weather is permitting, skip this entirely and take your jog or bike ride outside. The street and surrounds are amazing, and if you take the incline down the hill there are city bikes to rent and some 26-miles of gorgeous bike trail along the river! BUT, this is Pittsburgh, and the weather does not always cooperate. So for those days, watch the rain/snow/ice/whatever over the downtown skyline while you use the treadmill or exercise bike in the cozy comfort of home. ** Are you confused yet about the different levels of the house? There are 5 levels in all - basement with TV rec room and powder room, next up is garage with a gym, then main level with living/dining room, half bath, and kitchen, upstairs with 2 bedrooms and full bath, and at the very top is the en suite loft. As you may have guessed, this is not a house for those who have a challenge with stairs ** LOCATION It's hard to get better in terms of location than this. The house is situated at the end of a quiet and family-oriented street, with the sidewalks usually busy with neighbors jogging, pushing strollers, or walking their dogs. Nearly across the street is a convenience shop and pharmacy, and three more blocks away is Grand View Avenue and restaurant row with its variety of award-winning food establishments and other shops. The Monongahela incline is an 8-10 minute walk away, and drops down into Station Square. From there you can hop public transport or just stroll across the bridge and find yourself in downtown Pittsburgh. The stadiums are just minutes away as well.
