About this home

RARE ROMANTIC RICHARDSONIAN ROMANESQUE restoration of multi-generational living space or owner-occupied building in the Historic Mexican War Streets is truly move-in ready for you. Richardsonian Romanesque architecture is recognized by its grandeur, intricacy, sculpted shapes, archways and asymmetrical design. This eclectic style, created in the late 1800s, gives a sense of permanence and uniqueness to buildings that make them stand out, even among other historic, elegant buildings. Most likely the facade of this home was redesigned after the building of the Courthouse in Pittsburgh by Henry Hobson Richardson. Totally renewed living spaces feature three new kitchens, three baths with walk-in showers and laundry in each unit. The 4th unit is in the lower level and has not been restored. Morning sun flows into the living rooms through oversized arched windows. Spaces are graced with original mantels and wooden window surrounds. The first floor space includes original pocket doors. A new fire escape leads to garden courtyard and detached garage. Located centrally in the Mexican War Streets, easy access to downtown, sports venues, art venues, restaurants with easy access all points NSEW.
