This Brookline brick beauty is the quintessential Pittsburgh house"”solid, impeccably cared for, and filled with the kind of soul you just can't build from scratch. Located just steps from the vibrant energy of Brookline Boulevard, this home is a perfect blend of nostalgic charm and untapped potential. The front porch has been made into a private morning oasis ready to relax with your morning coffee. Step inside to a surprisingly spacious living room that feels like a warm hug. While there's cozy carpeting currently underfoot, the original hardwoods are waiting underneath, ready for their big reveal. Two comfortable bedrooms and a full bathroom are located on the main floor, making this an ideal layout for anyone looking to skip the stairs. At the back of the home, you'll find a three-seasons room. With a few minor adjustments, this could easily become your favorite sun-drenched dining spot or a lush plant sanctuary. The semi-finished basement is a classic Western PA time capsule, currently serving as a secondary kitchen space. Whether you're hosting massive holiday pierogi-making sessions or looking to create a dedicated guest suite or game room, the footprint is already there. There is dedicated space in the rear for a potential parking pad, a major luxury in this neighborhood, but the integral garage makes parking a breeze! You are a stone's throw from the shops, pubs, and community events that make Brookline Boulevard one of the city's favorite areas! This home is ready for its next owner to begin writing its new legacy!
