Property Description
Charming and full of character, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath brick home sits on Pocusset Street in the heart of Squirrel Hill - just steps from Schenley Park's trails, tennis courts, and green space. A rare blend of classic city architecture and thoughtful updates, this home offers comfortable, move-in-ready living with real income potential for investors and a warm, established feel for owner-occupants. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout the main level, giving the home a timeless foundation. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, striking a balance between classic brick-and-hardwood charm and modern convenience. Newer windows and central air add comfort and efficiency year-round - updates that are often overlooked until you don't have them, and here, you won't need to worry about either. Upstairs and throughout the home, four bedrooms provide flexible space for a growing family, roommates, or a home office setup. The partially finished lower level adds valuable bonus living space - ideal for a rec room, gym, or additional storage - while a detached one-car garage offers rare off-street parking in this walkable, in-demand pocket of the city. Outside, a back deck creates an easy indoor-outdoor flow, perfect for morning coffee, evening entertaining, or simply enjoying Squirrel Hill's tree-lined charm. Location is where this property truly shines. Squirrel Hill is one of Pittsburgh's most beloved neighborhoods, known for its walkability, diversity, and vibrant local business district along Murray and Forbes Avenues. From this address, you're just steps from Schenley Park and minutes from the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University, UPMC hospitals, and Chatham University - making this an exceptional location for students, medical professionals, and academics alike. Restaurants, cafes, shops, and grocery stores are all within easy reach, and convenient access to the Parkway East makes commuting downtown or beyond a breeze. Whether you're an investor looking to add a dependable, high-demand rental to your portfolio, or a buyer searching for a character-filled home in an unbeatable location, this Squirrel Hill gem checks every box.
