217 William St Pittsburgh, PA 15209

A storybook 1930 brick Tudor, loved by the same owners for over 60 years and kept beautifully intact. The arched stone entry opens to a foyer with its original iron stair rail and graceful arched openings flowing into the living and dining rooms. A floor to ceiling stone fireplace anchors the living room, with a stained glass door beside it opening to a wide covered porch. Then there is the kitchen: a soft green farmhouse sink, mint tile, cabinet doors with tulips worked into the glass, and an arched passage to a bright breakfast nook. Upstairs, three bedrooms with hardwood floors and wonderful closet space, plus a full bath. A captive room off one bedroom makes an easy office, nursery, or quiet retreat. The full basement is great for storage or whatever you have in mind, with a second full bath. A picture window frames the valley view, and the hillside setting gives real separation from the street. Steps to Grant Avenue, minutes to downtown. Update the finishes to your taste; the craftsmanship cannot be rebuilt.
