    What's special

    Nestled in the tranquil beauty of Sewickley Heights and just minutes from Sewickley Village, this custom-built home blends timeless charm with modern comforts. Surrounded by rolling meadows, a peaceful water feature, stone walls, and mature trees, the property offers privacy and pastoral elegance. Inside, the thoughtful layout features 4 bedrooms and 5 baths, including a main-level bedroom with a full bath—ideal as a home office or guest suite. The newly renovated kitchen is a standout, with quartz and stainless countertops, stainless steel appliances, wide pumpkin pine plank floors, skylights, and a cozy fireplace. It opens to both a sitting room with terrace access. The expansive living room boasts tall windows, a wood-burning fireplace, built-ins, and window seats. The formal dining room connects to a screened dining porch. Upstairs, the primary suite is a serene retreat with a corner fireplace, private deck, hardwood floors, and dual bathrooms and closets. Two additional bedrooms feature en-suite baths and ample storage. The lower level offers a large laundry room, two-car garage, workshop, cedar closet, and customizable unfinished space. Architectural details inspired by Virginia shine throughout, from splayed window openings and intricate mouldings to tall double-hung windows and a charming wraparound porch. With a composite slate roof, stucco exterior, plaster walls, and well-maintained mechanicals, this home is as functional as it is beautiful.
