Property Description
Golden opportunity to create a custom Shadyside residence with a dedicated detached garage bay and private rear courtyard. This semi-detached abode offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a premier location just 0.5 miles from both Walnut Street and South Highland Avenue commercial corridors. Inside, an already functional floor plan is complemented by preserved Craftsman detailing, providing an ideal foundation for a thoughtful cosmetic refresh. The uppermost level features a private bedroom and full bath, offering strong potential for conversion into a spacious primary suite with dressing room and laundry. A lower-level footprint presents additional opportunity for future finished den space. Out back, discover a true urban retreat: a fully fenced, European-inspired courtyard bathed in southern light and complete with a functioning water feature. Renovation loan information and contractor pricing are available, making this a compelling option for visionary buyers or investors seeking a refined city property moments from Shadyside's shopping, dining, and amenities.
