879 Blackburn Road, Sewickley Heights, PAVideo Tour of 879 Blackburn Road, Sewickley Heights, PA.
Through historic stone gates along the storied Blackburn Road, Gladmore Farm emerges as a rare offering in one of Sewickley Heights' most coveted settings. Elevated and private, the 6.7-acre grounds pair the enduring grace of early 20th-century craftsmanship with the promise of an extraordinary future. The existing residence, thoughtfully reimagined, offers four ensuite bedrooms and a luminous, decorator-designed kitchen. A long, winding approach reveals a home hidden from view, enveloped in quiet seclusion. Here, the legacy of Gladmore Farm becomes the foundation for your vision-whether preserving its refined presence or creating an entirely new estate on this unparalleled high-elevation site. In this exclusive enclave, history and possibility meet in timeless harmony.
