Set on a tree-lined street with sidewalks leading to the charming Sewickley Village shops and restaurants, this classic red brick Colonial single-family home at 209 Chestnut Road has been thoughtfully restored and comprehensively renovated to support modern living while honoring its historic character. A covered front porch, with a wainscoted wood ceiling and classic detailing, sets the tone for relaxed mornings, lingering afternoons, and easy conversations with neighbors. From here, double front doors open to a gracious foyer where rich wood floors, tall ceilings, and the original staircase immediately convey the home’s scale and craftsmanship. The main level flows comfortably for everyday living and entertaining, unified by hand-scraped wood flooring. The living room offers a welcoming place to gather with decorative fireplace, and built-in shelving - ideal for quiet evenings, reading, or relaxed time at home. Opening from the living room, the dining room is designed for shared meals and conversation a working gas fireplace and a bay window that fills the space with natural light. At the heart of the home, the thoughtfully renovated kitchen balances beauty and function. White custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and a large center island with seating create a natural gathering place for daily life. A Viking gas range anchors the space, complemented by stainless steel appliances, generous pantry storage, and a layout designed for both efficiency and connection. Just off the kitchen, a conveniently added main-level laundry room enhances daily living. Outdoor living is equally inviting. The covered rear porch, with a wainscoted wood ceiling and ample room for seating, overlooks the private, level backyard and brick patio. Whether hosting relaxed outdoor dinners, enjoying quiet mornings, or gathering with friends, the backyard offers space for entertaining, play, gardening, and everyday outdoor living. Upstairs, the second level continues the home’s thoughtful design. The original staircase leads to well-proportioned bedrooms filled with natural light. Three bedrooms are served by a renovated hall bath with clean lines and timeless finishes. The primary suite provides a quiet retreat. Generously scaled and filled with light, it features a walk-in closet and a private en-suite bath. The bath includes a walk-in shower, classic finishes, and natural light, creating a calm, refined space to begin and end the day. The fully renovated and expanded third floor adds exceptional versatility. A bright gathering space is ideal for play, hobbies or simply hanging out, while an additional bedroom features hardwood floors, dormer windows, and custom built-ins. A thoughtfully added third-floor bath, finished in a classic style and filled with natural light, completes this level, making it ideal for guests or flexible living. Behind the scenes, the home has been comprehensively improved with major system upgrades, including new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, windows and roof. Outside, a newly constructed two-car carriage-style garage with gravel drive, cobblestone edging, and lantern lighting complements the home’s architecture and enhances daily convenience. 209 Chestnut Road offers the rare combination of historic charm, modern infrastructure, and walkable Sewickley Village living - an inviting, beautifully maintained home well suited to both everyday living and entertaining
