Solid, brick ranch featuring 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and 1,614 square feet. The property has a main level bedroom and bathroom and off-street parking and is being sold as-is.
Spring Garden, located between Troy Hill and East Allegheny, is a hillside and river-adjacent Pittsburgh neighborhood with steep streets and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Spring Garden Avenue corridor near the 31st Street Bridge, where small workshops, corner bars, and light-industrial storefronts set a working-city tone. Rowhouses and compact cottages line the slopes, with occasional warehouse-era buildings along the flats. The route to the riverfront trails and the Strip District reads as utilitarian and scenic in equal measure. Nearby anchors like Penn Brewery, the Mattress Factory, and the National Aviary shape local culture beyond the residential blocks.
