About this property

Comfortable home with an artful flair close to PNC, museums and restaurants..

The ArtHouse was built in the 1920's and welcomes you with a spacious covered front porch, a small yard. Colorful art from around the globe will make you feel at home in this cozy corner of Pittsburgh. Natural light fills the comfortable living room that flows into the dining room and kitchen on the first floor. The dining table is large enough to seat 6 or more and there is a kitchen island for extra table surface/serving area. The kitchen has natural butcher block counter tops, turquoise folk art and a view of the back yard off the back porch. You will find flatware, dishes and cooking utensils to accommodate most of your cooking and dining needs.There is a Keurig coffee machine.

Upstairs are two bedrooms and a sitting room with a futon bed. One queen sized bed, one full sized bed and the sitting room has lots of games to choose from. There is Wifi available for work and entertainment. Sleep will be a dream on the delightful Nectar mattresses, total blackout shades and ceiling fans adding to your sleeping comfort. A recently renovated full bath is located upstairs and a Pittsburgh Potty is in the basement.

This house has historic charm - if you're looking for a new construction stay - this might not be the place for you. The convenient East Liberty location is close to the zoo, aquarium, Highland Park, many universities, the Strip, restaurants, grocery store options and so much more!

I would not stay at this property again.The listing photos appear to be heavily edited and do not accurately reflect the current condition of the space. In person, the property feels noticeably outdated and not as well-maintained as presented online.One of the biggest concerns was the odor. There was a persistent, stale smell throughout the home that did not go away during our stay. It seemed embedded in the space—possibly due to poor ventilation, lingering cooking odors, or lack of deep cleaning. It made the environment uncomfortable.Another major issue was safety. There is an outdated basement door that had a key left in it, which did not feel secure at all. It appeared that the door could be easily accessed or compromised, which raised serious concerns about the overall security of the property.Overall, the property did not meet expectations based on the listing. I would strongly encourage the host to update the photos to reflect the true condition of the space, improve ventilation and cleanliness, and address the security concerns immediately.

The house was like it was described in the listing. It was very spacious for our family of 5. When we arrived, all the upstairs windows were open, making the house very cold since it was in the 40s. Directions on how to set the heat would be helpful. There were about 4-5 modes to choose from on the thermostat controllers. Overall, it was a good experience. The host, Janet, was very easy to work with and responsive to my questions.

Great house and location!

Some friends and I had a great stay here. The location is perfect to get to Highland Park/East Liberty/Shadyside or over the hill to Lawrenceville. The house was clean and we enjoyed using the kitchen to cook some meals. We will definitely stay here again when in town to visit family.

About the host

Hosted by Janet Clodfelter

Host profile image
I married a man from this area years ago. We visited here most holidays and very summer. Tiring of intruding homes of relatives ...we finally have a place of our own!

Why they chose this property

I truly love going to the Strip District. Some weeks I go 3-4 times! It is like a carnival in some respects. Italian grocers yelling about cheese, outdoor merchants selling Steeler Nation merchandise, beautiful and delicious pastries, best coffee ever and an occasional sax player on the street . You can buy everything you need for a delicious meal to prepare in our kitchen.
It takes around 10 minutes to drive to the Strip from our house.

What makes this property unique

Comfortable beds, total black out window shades, split units for climate control, hand held shower device, recliner for watching TV or resting in the living room and most kitchen amenities that you may desire. We also have a large covered front porch and four ball park chairs if you want to sit outside.
