About the host
Hosted by Mary Lou Borchert
For over 32 wonderful years, I lived in Fortaleza in the State of Ceara, Brazil. While there, fifteen + years were spent as a restaurant entrepreneur togrther with a business partner. We owned two restaurants: Cafe Matisse and Le Pot. Portuguese is my second language. Now fast forward...for about 18 years, I worked as a real estate agent & am now retired. Hobbies include: cooking, E-biking with my hubby, international travel, cruising, visiting our grown "kids" & camping & exploring new adventures in our Black Series HQ21 RV! There's never a dull moment!!

Why they chose this property
This is our own "Home Sweet Home". Our neighborhood is great for walking when the weather permits! Brookline Blvd., provides eateries where you can enjoy a quick bite. We are retired and enjoying life. Thus, we decided to open our home for guests to enjoy, make memories & explore the "Burgh!" We love our space. There's still some future projects that we look forward to completing. My husband & I anticipate that our guests will be respectful & tidy. One of our favorite pastimes is enjoying coffee, meals or a glass of wine on our flagstone patio. You'll see different birds & new flowers debut each day! The whimsical painted artifacts throughout the garden were done by my husband. His favorite passtime is working the garden & getting his hands dirty! The propane grill is older but still does a lovely job grilling steaks to burgers, pizza, etc. Visit Moore's Park where you'll find tennis, basketball & pickleball courts, a renovated public pool & sprinklers for kiddos. If you want to ride the bus, the bus stop for downtown is located about 50 steps from the house. The Boulevard offers: CVS Pharmacy, nail salons, bakeries, men's hair salon, gas station, 1st Community Bank, Cafes, Carnegie Public Library, Pitaland, & shops, etc. At Pitaland, you can savor a delicious Gyro, Baklava, etc. Take time out to explore the boulevard. Gotta love it!
What makes this property unique
First off, this is our actual home! It's location is in the southern part, away from the hustle & bustle of larger neighbor-
hoods,with a small town feel. In only minutes, you can arrive at Mt. Washington to check out the overlook with amazing views, walk down Shilo Street, move on to downtown Pittsburgh, take in a game in one of the stadiums, museums, eateries & so much more.
