Situated on a third of an acre, this story book brick cape is on a tree lined street in the Crescent Hills plan of Penn Hills. Minutes to shopping and convenient to the parkway, this home boasts a nice sized back yard , a beautiful slate roof, and a ton of charm with period features throughout. Relax on the screened back porch all summer long. Lots of natural light flood the generously sized living room. Upstairs you will find three bedrooms and a full bathroom. Original hardwoods!
Penn Hills, located between Wilkinsburg and Plum, is a residential and hillside Pittsburgh neighborhood with wooded ravines and a patchwork of mid-century streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the William Penn Highway corridor near Rodi Road, where diners, barbershops, and long-running local storefronts line the drive. Housing leans toward brick ranches, split-levels, and postwar colonials set on deep lots with mature trees. Penn Hills Shopping Center and the Penn Hills Library anchor daily errands and community programming. Green space threads through places like Blackridge Park and nearby trails, giving the area a quiet, outdoors-forward rhythm.
