5440 Aylesboro Pittsburgh, PA 15217

Location; location; location! Aylesboro Avenue is one of the most desirable streets in Squirrel Hill due to its proximity to Schenley Park, Oakland, and downtown Pittsburgh, and for its convenience to Squirrel Hill restaurants and shopping. This impressive 6 bedroom, 4 full bathroom, North of Forbes home on the edge of Murdoch Farms has been completely remodeled! Nestled on an over-sized lot and a half, the house has a long private driveway, a 2 car garage, and impressive rear grounds, including a large flagstone patio and a side yard with gardening boxes. The extensive renovation included a complete upgrade of electrical and plumbing throughout the house and a new roof. Elimination of a back staircase created an open floor plan on the first floor, a cheery rear sunroom, and a new first floor bathroom. On the second floor, a "down to the studs" renovation allowed for a master bedroom with a huge walk-in closet, a beautiful master bath, brand new hardwood floors, and new marble fireplace surrounds. A bright and sweeping staircase was added to the third floor, which houses a large walk-in laundry, a game room, and an exercise room. The remodeled bathrooms and kitchen have heated floors, and each floor of the home has separate zoned heating and cooling, courtesy of two new furnaces and central air systems. While many modern conveniences were updated in this home, attention to detail has allowed it to retain its amazing historic charm, including coved ceilings, paneled walls, plastered crown molding, and intricate hand-nailed hardwood floors. This meticulously restored home in the heart of Squirrel Hill is a must-see!
