This current one-bedroom, one-bathroom house is a blank slate waiting for someone with vision, whether that means a full rehab or a fresh tear-down-and-build adventure in one of Pittsburgh's fastest-rising neighborhoods. Let's be honest right away: this property is sold as-is, where-is. But before you scroll past, consider what comes with it. A detached garage sits on the lot, delivering coveted off-street parking on a tiny street where finding a spot is practically a competitive sport. Perched on the corner of an alleyway, the home offers both character and access, with all the quirks that corner living brings. Here's the kicker. The vacant lot right next door is also available, meaning an ambitious buyer could scoop up both parcels and design a dream home from the ground up. The possibilities stretch as far as your imagination and blueprint allow. The location seals the deal. You're minutes from downtown Pittsburgh, surrounded by neighbors who are already pouring energy into renovations. Charming coffee shops are steps away, Giant Eagle handles the grocery runs, and Catalano Parklet offers a green escape. Pittsburgh Union Station and convenient bus lines keep you connected, while Pittsburgh CAPA anchors the area's creative spirit. Priced to invite bold thinkers, this is a chance to plant roots where momentum is building. Bring your vision, bring your tools, and come see what could be.
