Welcome to 921 Shady Crest, where classic Pittsburgh charm meets big-ticket updates and a little personality! Tucked away on a dead-end street in Beechview, this 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath raised ranch has plenty to love, from its original hardwood floors to its backyard retreat complete with an inground pool! Let’s start with the updates, because the expensive stuff matters! A new roof and tankless water heater (2022), windows (2023), and furnace and central A/C (2024) mean some of the biggest homeownership expenses have already been addressed. Add in a newer garage door and opener, and that’s a pretty impressive list! Inside, original hardwood floors bring warmth and character that you just can’t replicate. The kitchen offers generous counter space, while one of the bedrooms features built-in cabinetry that could make a fantastic home office, hobby room, or creative space. A heated and cooled addition with French doors that head to the back yard oasis provides even more room to spread out, whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee, entertaining friends, or simply relaxing at the end of the day. And then there’s the bathroom! If you know Pittsburgh homes, you know the iconic pink bathroom. It’s a little retro, a little nostalgic, and a whole lot of Pittsburgh personality! But here’s another bonus: head downstairs and you’ll find a SECOND FULL BATHROOM. That’s right, not your typical Pittsburgh potty! Two actual full bathrooms in an older Pittsburgh home? Now that’s something worth celebrating! The partially finished lower level offers additional flexible space, complete with a fireplace that adds a cozy touch. Whether you envision a game room, hangout space, or a place to unwind, there’s room to make it your own. You’ll also appreciate the storage options in both the garage and attic. Outside, the backyard brings its own kind of fun! An inground pool takes center stage, creating the perfect setting for summer afternoons, weekend gatherings, and making memories right at home. Gather with friends, grow a garden, or relax by a fire-There’s plenty of opportunity to enjoy the outdoors without ever leaving your own backyard! Location? Another win! Just minutes from the Fort Pitt Tunnel, you’ll enjoy convenient access to Downtown Pittsburgh, the South Hills, shopping, dining, and more, all while coming home to a tucked-away neighborhood setting. Original hardwoods, retro charm, two full bathrooms, a backyard pool, and major updates already completed? This Beechview home has a personality all its own, and plenty of reasons to fall in love!

About
Beechview
Beechview, located between Mount Washington and Dormont, is a hillside and streetcar Pittsburgh neighborhood with steep stair streets and a compact business strip. Broadway Avenue concentrates the neighborhood’s character, with corner bakeries, taquerias, barbershops, and small storefronts clustered along the tracks. Rows of early-20th-century brick and frame houses step down the slopes, with porches facing tight blocks and long views between rooftops. The Beechview Seldom Seen Greenway adds wooded trails and a quieter edge to the street grid. The T’s Beechview Station ties daily routines to light-rail platforms and walkable errands. Community pillars include Las Palmas, the Beechview branch of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, and the Beechview Farmers Market.
