Property Description
Welcome to 1534 Monterey Street, where historic charm meets modern city living in the heart of Pittsburgh's beloved Historic Mexican War Streets. Beautifully restored, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home blends the homes original character with thoughtful updates designed for today's lifestyle. The bright, open main level showcases original hardwood floors, tall baseboards, and a gas log fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space for everyday living. The living and dining areas flow effortlessly into the functional kitchen with bar seating, making entertaining feel easy and connected. A convenient first-floor powder room is ready for guests before everyone heads outside to the lush backyard, where a brick patio with a custom retractable awning creates the perfect setting for dinner parties, morning coffee, or relaxing summer evenings. Upstairs, the second floor features two bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with an updated en-suite bath and the convenience of second-floor laundry. The third-floor suite, complete with its own full bath, offers incredible flexibility as a guest retreat, home office, or bonus living space. Throughout the home, custom shutters add both style and privacy. One of the neighborhood's most coveted features awaits outside: a brand-new two-car concrete parking pad (2025)—a true luxury in the city. Additional improvements include refinished hardwood floors (2018), a new hot water heater (2019), replaced gas line (2019), staircase runner (2020), new attic insulation (2026), and a new roof over the rear addition (2026). Just blocks from Allegheny Commons Park, the Children's Museum, National Aviary, Randyland, neighborhood cafés and restaurants, the North Shore, Downtown, stadiums, theaters, and miles of riverfront trails, 1534 Monterey offers the perfect balance of historic character, modern comfort, and one of Pittsburgh's most vibrant, walkable neighborhoods.
