Easily walk to Shadyside's shopping & restaurant district. This home offers so many possibilities with features like high ceilings, 3 full baths, large room sizes and updated mechanics. Several charming features give a nod to the period this home was built like interior transom style windows above most doorways, some decorative woodwork, built-in storage cupboards, ornate fireplace mantel with glazed ceramic tile surround (located in front bedroom) and large windows throughout giving lots of natural light. Exterior features include minimal yard maintenance, large front porch, covered back porch and small deck from the second floor. The rear yard could possibly provide added off-street parking options, buyer should investigate this possibility. Close to transportation, many universities, and hospitals.
