In March 1909,Elias Ritts became engaged and subsequently hired a Pittsburgh and Philidelphia rising star architect, Maximilian Nirdlinger and his contractor E.E.White to design and build a home for his new bride on the property next to his father's property on Belmont Road. Built to last centuries on a .94 acre lot in a sought after neighborhood using the best materials and expertise of artisans and craftsmen of their time. Mr. Ritts spared no expense in the creation of his home. Nine foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, mahogany doors and paneling, a hand sculpted ceiling in the formal living room, French doors, stained glass windows, loads of storage, crown moldings, and a grand staircase made the perfect setting for weddings, graduations, neighborhood parties, social gatherings, and even advertising for local automobile manufactures. The current owners have spent nearly 39 years restoring this home to it's former singular elegance of the 20th century. New kitchen, new light fixtures, new bathrooms, new sewer line, new roof, and new driveway. Also enjoy the well equipped lower level kitchen bar room and the family room. There is even an elevator, generator and first floor laundry for extra convenience. Easy access to Rt. 8, Rt.422, Rt.356, Rt.68.and I79.
