326 42ND Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15201

Central Lawrenceville is one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in Pittsburgh, with Butler Street just a few blocks away. As the new owner of this home, you will have the restaurants, coffee shops, and breweries that define the neighborhood's energy all within minutes of your front door. And when you're ready to come home from work, there's parking right in front of the house. 326 42nd Street is a 1920 brick standalone. It has what much of the new construction is still trying to figure out - original woodwork, hardwood floors throughout and loads of warmth. A brick fireplace that anchors the living room without taking it over. Two bay windows pulling light in from the street. From where you stand at the fireplace, the sightline runs all the way through to the kitchen. The house announces itself in the first thirty seconds. The main floor is open where the living and dining rooms flow together generously and the kitchen sits set back from the main space, featuring butcherblock countertops, stainless appliances, open shelving, and a view of the backyard from the sink. Enjoy the convenience of a first-floor powder room and a covered front porch for the mornings. The flat, fully fenced and grassy backyard is rare in this part of the city, and the dog will claim it immediately. Upstairs, the primary suite is worth stopping for. A repurposed mid-century piece anchors the custom vanity, a walk-in shower, this bathroom feels considered and luxurious. The hallway bath follows the same instinct: bright, modern and spacious. Across the hall is a large closet with shelving for all the extras you need to store away. The back bedroom opens onto a covered second-floor porch, framing already there for screens. This is the kind of detail that makes a summer morning. The small third room on this floor works as a perfect home office. On the third floor, you'll find two more bedrooms for your guests, a second office, or whatever your life requires, including enough headroom to stand tall. The basement is unfinished and useful: storage, workshop, room to grow, plus an additional full bathroom. Three finished floors, central air and a generous back yard. If you've been waiting for something in Lawrenceville with real character, this is the one.
