IDEAL FOR:
* Visitors for Penguins games, or events at PPG Arena
* Visitors for the convention center

LAYOUT
The ground floor includes a private garage, full bath, and laundry area, making arrivals and extended stays easy.

On the main level, an open layout connects the living room, dining area, and fully equipped kitchen, which opens to a balcony for fresh air and city views.

Upstairs, three bedrooms and two full baths provide restful spaces for families or coworkers. The primary suite features a walk-in closet and bathroom, while two additional bedrooms can access that bathroom through the hallway, or use the second full bath on the garage level.

A small covered porch on the entry level offers a shaded spot to relax outdoors. Designed for families and business travelers, the home blends everyday functionality with a central location close to hospitals, universities, and downtown attractions.

To be certain that our home is a good fit for your stay please read our House Rules and send us a message before booking.

The entire house is accessible except for 2 supply closets.

I`m committed to doing whatever I can to make your stay the best it can be. I absolutely love this city and would be delighted to share with you some of my favorite restaurants, museums, parks or attractions. I respect your privacy and will communicate as little or as much as you wish.

The home is part of a newer housing development located in the historic but revitalized Lower Hill neighborhood.

Avoid the highways and sneak your way around traffic. PPG Arena is walking distance, and many desirable dining and sight-seeing spots are quick trips by car or Uber. The Oakland neighborhood (home of Pitt, Carnegie Melon, museums, and UPMC) is just 10 minutes away on side streets.

Also nearby (10 minute drive) is the lively and walkable Strip Disctrict, with many dining options, The Heinz History Museum and the David E. Lawrence Convention Center.

The August Wilson House and events center is less than 5 minutes away on foot.

PPG Arena is walking distance for those who wish to avoid traffic and parking costs, but there is a fairly steep climb on the way back.

If you don`t want to drive, we recommend using Lyft/Uber from this location.
