Set in one of Mt. Lebanon’s most desirable locations, this exceptional 1915 residence offers a rare combination of architectural character, gracious spaces and a private setting just minutes from Uptown's shops & restaurants and centrally located between the elementary, middle and high schools. Striking painted brick, marble and distinctive rooflines create a memorable exterior, while the Governor’s Drive circles the home for effortless entry and exit. Inside, original craftsmanship is beautifully preserved, from plaster walls and arched doorways to built-in cabinetry, alcoves, hardwood floors and period light fixtures. A gracious marble entry with curved staircase rises beneath a spectacular stained-glass ceiling medallion. The elegant living room features a dramatic brick fireplace with herringbone hearth and French doors opening to a covered side porch. The traditional dining room is highlighted by a marble fireplace, leaded-glass corner windows and a charming window nook. The St. Charles-style kitchen includes a cozy breakfast nook and access to the rear porch. Three bedrooms are located on the main level, including a primary bedroom with fireplace, balcony access and a distinctive marble-clad bath. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath. The second level offers two bedrooms with 11x9 dressing room between, one and a half baths and a loft-style den with French doors to a spacious family room with vaulted ceiling, fireplace and arched office nook. A generous lower level provides storage, a classic Pittsburgh potty and potential for additional finished space. An extraordinary home filled with character and timeless details in an exceptional location.
Mount Lebanon, located between Dormont and Upper St. Clair, is a residential and commercial Pittsburgh neighborhood with a walkable main street and a light-rail spine. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Washington Rd at Beverly Rd, where sidewalk cafes, independent boutiques, and longtime eateries line the blocks. Brick Tudors, mid-century ranches, and apartment buildings cluster near the business district, while leafier streets rise toward parks and schools. The Beverly Hills district adds a compact, village-like streetscape of storefronts and patios. The Denis Theatre and Uptown Coffee anchor local culture alongside the Mt. Lebanon Public Library’s civic presence. Twin Hills Park and the Mt. Lebanon Golf Course shape daily routines with trails, fields, and fairways.
