Property Description

Here it is - step into a circa 1870s Pittsburgh home, painstakingly renovated over the past decade with the utmost respect to history, materials, and the preservation of character and functionality wherever possible. 149 Homestead commands a prime location in the increasingly sought after neighborhood of Swisshelm Park, and is situated on 1/3 an acre of flat, usable land that offers limitless possibilities.

This home is chock full of original woodwork, beautiful hardwood floors, and windows and ceilings that they don't build this tall anymore. The kitchen and bathroom have been recently remodeled (2019 and 2023 respectively). Attention to detail was paid not only to design but also mechanics, such as insulation, ventilation, and updated plumbing and electric. Walk out the kitchen door into one of the biggest and most private yards you will find in the area. And the three-car garage provides ample room for storage and hobbies. Significant investment has been made in the “nuts and bolts” of the home, including a new roof and full repointing (2015), gutter guards, a first floor mini split (2025), and extensive preventative tree work (2025). Furthermore the basement is dry, with a french drain and sump pump, and the furnace is in good working condition. The new owners will be able to jump right into aesthetic updates without much worry for the bones of the house. Though seemingly attached, the neighboring home was built separately and four layers of bricks prevent any sound transfer. The location provides the best of both worlds: a quiet neighborhood with easy access to Regent Square, Swissvale, and Squirrel Hill. Following the construction of the Commercial Street Bridge on I-376 (Parkway East), Commercial Street will re-open in August to provide a shortcut through to other East End neighborhoods, as well as easy access to Frick Park.
