About this home

Mid-Century Modern home built from Maryland fieldstone nestled on three acres abutting Sewickley Heights Golf Course and a pond. You will be greeted at the front of the home by large double doors that open into a grand foyer featuring a custom chandelier suspended in the circular staircase. The main floor has an abundance of natural light with multiple views of the backyard and pool. Home is configured in two wings; upstairs is the "kids" wing which includes a carpeted playroom, three bedrooms and a renovated bathroom. The second wing is the Master Bedroom Suite that includes a working fireplace and balcony. A slate courtyard surrounds a recently renovated thirty-thousand gallon pool with diving board. From the pool, walk down to the kids playground or expansive tennis courts surrounded by high fencing. Home includes numerous updates such as the electrical system, NEST Security, eight-zone heating, paint and carpeting. Just minutes from Sewickley Village, I79 and Route 65. Must see!
