257 Stoup Road is a multi-generational home with Master Bedrooms on both levels; a Raised Ranch without the split-level steps, and more efficient than the average 2 Story. This home features a new main-level Master En-Suite, and very spacious rooms throughout, with thoughtful updates. Set on two acres, the property includes parking for ten vehicles, Two Pagodas, raised garden beds, a generous party/entertaining area, and a built-in playground for little ones.
This view is taken from Stoup Road. This peaceful, country location is simply outstanding—just 15 minutes to Cranberry, six minutes to Mars, 35 minutes to downtown Pittsburgh, and only 45 minutes to the Pittsburgh International Airport, in Adams Twp, which has one of the highest averages in Butler County for Home Values.
This close-up photo of 257 Stoup Road—framed by its English Garden of perennials, including cone flowers, daisies, and more, may suggest a quaint cottage, but it’s wonderfully misleading. Behind this charming façade is a substantial six-bedroom home offering 3,346 sq. ft. of finished, beautifully updated living space.
The entire home—interior and exterior—was professionally painted in 2023, and shutters were added to enhance curb appeal. The 70 foot asphalt driveway was replaced with concrete.
The concrete parking area at the back of the home measures 56' x 50', with an additional 38' x 25' concrete pad beyond it. After removing the old blacktop driveway, dozens of truckloads of earth were brought in to level the space, raising the grade by up to four feet.
Previously, this side of the home had a slope so steep that the area was difficult to use; now, it is fully level, functional, and ideal for parking, play, or outdoor activities. The entire home—interior and exterior—was professionally painted in 2023, and shutters were added to enhance curb appeal.
The party area offers a spacious outdoor setting for gatherings and relaxation—while still leaving room for six to ten vehicles in the parking pad area.
The two 16'x12’ wood Gazebos by Yardistry, both have Aluminum Roofs, and built-in bars. The Gazebo has the Jacuzzi Hot Tub and the Right Pagoda is screened for Dining.
The Jacuzzi Hot Tub stays and it seats four very comfortably! Life is simply better when you can soak your muscles before sleeping!
The right Gazebo is fully screened; the quartz topped table was just built. This spring the wooden base will be ready to be painted.
The 100% NEW Kitchen spans 348 square feet (29' x 12') and is truly the heart of the home. It features twin large pantries, a broom closet, and a stunning 10-foot quartz-topped island that seats six to seven and offers exceptional storage beneath. The Kitchen is fully updated with all-new flooring, extensive new cabinetry, new lighting, new appliances, and fresh paint—a complete transformation from top to bottom.
Here is a second view of the 29-foot-long Kitchen, looking toward the back porch; this angle highlights the built-in niche with glass shelving, perfect for displaying art, glassware, or collectibles. The island has 6 large drawers perfect for baking & roasting equipment, plus three large top drawers for silverware, utensils, and cutlery. The new barn door slides to the left to access the stairs leading to the upper-level.
This full view of the Kitchen looks in the opposite direction, toward the front yard and raised beds and grape harbors, highlights the stunning large country-style stainless-steel sink. The Bosch refrigerator and ultra-quiet dishwasher—both stainless as well—add efficiency and elegance to this beautifully designed space.
This view captures just half of the expansive Kitchen, looking toward the backyard and gardens while also showcasing the impressive six-burner gas stove and hood. The backsplash complements the tile flooring beautifully, and all four countertops are crafted from thick, premium Quartz.
The 25' x 14' Dining Room features original oak hardwood flooring and architectural character throughout, including oak ceiling beams and a brick accent wall finished in Sherwin Williams’ striking Urban Bronze. The half-wall at the Entry has been recently upgraded with a slab of exotic granite, and the triple window, single window, and floor-to-ceiling window are all dressed with custom blinds.
This view of the Dining Room highlights the new crystal chandeliers and two four-foot dining tables placed together to create one long, elegant setting that accommodates up to 12 guests or family members.
This angle looks toward the Kitchen and highlights the statement brick wall—an ideal backdrop for artwork, an accent table, or a pair of antique chairs. This spacious 25' x 14' room can also be flexed as a Living Room, Game Room, or second Family Room.
This photo shows the 350-square-foot Dining Room arranged for a more intimate gathering, with the second table positioned as a convenient server for buffet-style dining.
The Family Room spans 25' x 20' and features newly installed ¾" oak hardwood flooring, upgraded lighting, and elegant crown molding. Two triple windows bathe the room in natural light and are fitted with new custom blinds. These windows look out to the parking area and the entertaining and pagoda areas.

To the left, the sliding doors lead directly to the newly installed Patio.
This two-story addition has the new Master En-Suite on the main level, and Bedrooms #5 & #6 on the upper level.
