Property Description
This Thompson-built home in Abbott Acres has been remarkably preserved, showcasing fine craftsmanship, exceptional character, and tasteful, classic details. From the distinctive brick exterior and 8-panel solid wood entry door to the rich woodwork, original finishes and hardwood floors found throughout, this is a home with a personality all its own. The spacious entry opens to a traditional staircase and sunken living room filled with natural light. The adjoining formal dining room features hardwood floors, while the den is rich with character featuring grasscloth wallpaper and built-in bookshelves. The generously sized kitchen offers an abundance of cabinetry and counter space along with a separate breakfast nook. Just beyond, the family room features wood-paneled walls, exposed beams, built-in bookshelves and a brick fireplace with wood mantel. Large windows overlook the backyard and a door provides access to the expansive rear deck. A convenient main-level laundry room is located adjacent to the family room. Upstairs, the generous room sizes continue. The spacious primary bedroom offers plenty of room for a sitting area and includes a private bath. Through the primary walk-in closet you'll find a walk-in attic for bonus storage space. The three additional bedrooms are also exceptionally well-sized with ample closet space, while the hall bath features a double-bowl vanity. On the lower level, a large finished game room features warm wood paneling, built-in shelving and a striking stone fireplace spanning much of the wall. A full-service bar creates an incredible entertaining space, complete with plenty of seating. The lower level also provides direct access to the backyard. Outside, the setting is every bit as special. An expansive rear deck overlooks a picturesque and private backyard surrounded by mature trees and established landscaping. The large lawn provides plenty of usable outdoor space, while the wooded backdrop creates a peaceful setting that is hard to duplicate. Located in desirable Abbott Acres in McCandless, just steps from North Park, two world-renowned hospital systems, and award-winning North Allegheny schools, this home offers a rare combination of prized location, spaciousness, quality construction and beautifully preserved character. So much of what makes this home special is still here—from the woodwork to the fireplaces and built-ins.
