Property Description
Perched against a green hillside, the property feels surprisingly removed from the city below. Mature trees and dense vegetation surround the house, creating the atmosphere of a tucked-away treehouse retreat. Trim back the trees and greenery, and a partial view of Downtown may emerge. The overgrown yard also offers room for a future outdoor plan, whether that eventually means gardens, terraces, gathering areas, or simply a quieter place to enjoy the hillside.
Please arrive with realistic expectations. The house has suffered water damage, the roof is beyond a patch job, and the structure may be near teardown condition. This is not a cosmetic fixer where paint and new cabinet hardware save the day. Buyers should anticipate a major rehabilitation and obtain professional inspections, environmental evaluations, contractor estimates, and structural guidance before proceeding. Depending on those findings, renovation or demolition and new construction may be considered, subject to all required municipal reviews and approvals.
Parking is another interesting piece of the picture. A large cul-de-sac turnaround provides considerable space near the property, though buyers should independently verify boundaries, ownership, parking rights, and permitted use. Two neighboring parcels are owned by the city of Pittsburgh and are not included in this sale but they may potentially be available for purchase separately.
The location brings a useful contrast: plenty of privacy and greenery at home, with major Pittsburgh destinations only minutes away. West End Elliott Overlook Park is nearby, while Rivers Casino, Acrisure Stadium, PNC Park, and Downtown are within convenient reach. Access to the parkway network helps simplify travel toward Downtown and other city neighborhoods in one direction, with connections toward Interstate 79 and Pittsburgh International Airport in the other. Parkway West access also keeps additional neighborhoods and employment centers approachable without making the hillside setting feel any less secluded.
For the right buyer, the price point and land setting may create an uncommon chance to rethink a city property from the ground up. It is rough, overgrown, and unquestionably demanding—but it also has privacy, parking potential, a possible skyline glimpse, and a location close to Pittsburgh's core.
If serious renovation does not scare you, bring your contractor, wear sturdy shoes, and arrange a private showing today!
