Investment opportunity! This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home has been partially gutted. Will need a complete rehab. Many possibilities for a custom remodel. Located within Reserve Township in the Shaler Area School District.
Reserve Township, located between the Ohio River and the hills above Route 28, is a residential and riverside Pittsburgh neighborhood with steep wooded slopes and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Route 28 corridor near the 31st Street Bridge, where riverfront views, trail traffic, and industrial-era infrastructure set the tone. The Rivers of Steel: Carrie Blast Furnaces National Historic Landmark anchors the area’s steel-story identity. Millvale’s Mr. Smalls Theatre and Grist House Craft Brewery sit just next door and function as regular cultural touchpoints. Housing trends toward mid-century streets and hillside lots, with quick shifts from tree canopy to river edge. The Three Rivers Heritage Trail frames daily routines with long, flat miles along the water.
