About this property

Serene, Smart, & Stylish—Near Downtown, w/ Parking

This renovated home blends a historic touch with modern luxury—original woodwork, pocket doors, and high-end finishes.

Nestled in a quiet neighborhood just 10 minutes from downtown, you can enjoy easy parking, a private deck with BBQ, and peaceful vibes after city adventures. A versatile home, it has been an ideal spot for families, groups, work crews, and extended stays.

And it makes a great homebase if you`re town for Pirates or Steelers games!

Here is a walk-through of the home:

Main Floor – Easy Living & Entertaining
Enter through the rear porch into a bright, flowing layout. The spacious kitchen is fully equipped for real cooking and light gathering, while the living room and dining room flow together for easy connection. There’s also a powder room and direct access to a covered patio, small backyard, and grill.

Second Floor – Privacy + Comfort for All
Three bedrooms and two full bathrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements. The spacious primary bedroom includes an ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms share a hall bath, and one room is ideal for a single sleeper or child. Everyone gets room to relax.

Third Floor – Retreat-Style Bonus Space
Upstairs, two large bedrooms give guests even more privacy and quiet—ideal for groups, teens, or those who like to spread out. Soft natural light and generous square footage make this level feel like its own escape.

There is also a washer and dryer in the basement, always available for your laundry needs.

Guests are expected to read and honor the House Rules. No events/parties allowed, and only booked guests can be there at any time. Pet fees for pre-approved pets are $25 per night, up to two pets and are non-refundable.

You and your group will have the entire space all to yourselves. With easy, automated check-in and check-out using the Smart Lock, you can be sure to feel right at home during your stay.

I`m committed to doing whatever I can to make your stay the best it can be. I absolutely love this city and would be delighted to share with you some of my favorite restaurants, museums, parks or attractions. I respect your privacy and will communicate as little or as much as you wish.

We have some of the most beautiful streets in our neighborhood. Just a couple blocks away, you can find grand, detailed, historic homes to admire as you enjoy walking through one of Pittsburgh`s friendliest neighborhoods.

While bus routes are plentiful, traveling by car is extremely easy from our neighborhood. Whether you`re going Downtown, The North Shore, or the North Hills, this home is nearby without having to cross through the infamous mountains and tunnels. If your travels are taking you across the river into the South Hills, the bypasses easily allow you to avoid the bustling congested areas of the city.

I`m available to help make your stay the best it can be, but the level of communication is entirely up to you. It is always my pleasure to make suggestions on where to go and what to do - from museums to my favorite walkable streets.

You will also receive a guidebook three days before check-in with recommendations and instructions for the appliances in the home.

Please be sure to click the `heart` to save this home to your wishlist. Check out my other listings as well.
Please treat our house with the same respect as you would your own home. We’ve put a lot of effort into making this into a lovely space to be enjoyed by our guests.

Noise and Privacy
We hope you have lots of laughter and fun times during your vacation! However, we’d really appreciate it if you’re mindful and keep noise to a minimum during nighttime hours between 9PM and 8AM. If any neighboring residents report excessive noise or unruly behavior, we may have to evict you from our property and terminate the vacation rental agreement. This could result in the loss of the rental amount and a damage claim.
In case of any disputes or neighbor complaints, it’s your duty to notify us as soon as reasonably possible.
There are a couple of closets in the home that are private and locked, please do not attempt to open them.

Our home is equipped with noise and occupancy sensors inside and security cameras (including audio) outside. Any tampering with the devices will result in immediate eviction with no refunds.

Please be sure to ventilate the kitchen after cooking anything that could leave a strong smell behind.
Be careful not to wash food remains down the drain. Please throw any kitchen scraps into a trash bag.
To help the environment, please only switch on the dishwasher when it’s full and use the ecoprogram when possible.


Trash
We like to do our bit for the environment, and we ask that our guests do the same!
Please keep your trash and recyclables separate as the recycling pickup schedule alternates. Please feel free to use the containers in the garage stall to hold any trash until trash night.
Trash pickup is every Wednesday so please bring your trash bags to the curb on Tuesday nights. (The recycling schedule will be in the guidebook you will receive before your stay.)
Please do not flush any sanitary products down the toilet. We provide a bin for this in each bathroom.
Kitchen cleaning products are under the sink. If any products run out during your stay, please let us know so we can replace them for you and/or the next guests.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew

Host profile image
I'm Andrew, and I cannot express to you enough how happy I am to be back in my hometown of Pittsburgh. After growing up in the area's declining steel industry, and moving to New England for about 9 years, I'm finally back to the only city that ever felt like home.

I started Steel River Ventures as a way to embrace the city I love when I moved back home to Pittsburgh in 2017. Now I want to share my homes and my city with our guests! I've been fortunate enough to grow over the years along with Pittsburgh and watch it transform. With every day that passes, I discover something else about this city that I love and would be happy to share that with you.

I am more than happy to be as active a host as you'd like. By default, you as a guest will have your privacy, but I'm always available to meet and share my thoughts on the area with you. Be warned though, I love Pittsburgh and that will come through in our conversations!

My primary income is working in vocational learning technology, but I am a car guy at heart. Whenever my schedule allows, I try to get to local track events at roadcourses, auto-cross or hillclimb venues. I enjoy teaching performance driving, car control and driver safety as well. I also try to read a little (usually non-fiction), visit the gym as often as possible, and spend time with family and friends.

Why they chose this property

With its 2019 renovation, this historic Pittsburgh home provides modern comfort and conveniences while retaining all of its important original features. I love staying here as the quiet area is so nice to come home to, but still allows easy access to everywhere I want to go.

What makes this property unique

A fully stocked kitchen and large dining area can serve the entire family. Comfortable living and bedrooms with smart TV's so nobody has to fight over the remote to watch their favorite streaming services. Easy check-in and check-out allow a worry free stay.
