Property Description

Some homes have a bit of a story to tell, but this remarkable McKeesport classic has been collecting chapters for generations. Originally built as a duplex, it now offers an incredibly versatile floorplan with 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, creating endless possibilities for a large household, multigenerational living, or an investor searching for exceptional potential. For added perspective, the property was successfully operated as a licensed group home since 1989. From the moment you step inside through the convenient level entry, the home's historic character makes an unforgettable impression. The living room showcases a decorative fireplace framed by the original lacquered oilcloth hand painted wall coverings which is an extraordinary feature that is rarely found and impossible to duplicate. Hardwood floors flow throughout much of the home adding to the timeless craftsmanship. The main level offers the convenience of 2 bedrooms and a full bath making one level living a realistic option while still leaving plenty of room for everyone else. The partially equipped kitchen includes the stove and refrigerator and is only missing a dishwasher. The charming pantry complete with hidden secret storage built right into the door makes a delightful conversation piece that reflects the personality of the home. Upstairs, the story continues with 3 additional bedrooms including a spacious primary suite featuring its own private bath and a beautiful decorative fireplace that creates an elegant retreat. Another full bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The expansive lower level offers tremendous additional space along with a convenient powder room, making it ideal for recreation, hobbies, storage, a workshop, or future finishing possibilities. Practical updates blend seamlessly with the home's vintage appeal including updated electrical service, a fire alarm system, Traco replacement windows, and central air conditioning for year round comfort. One of the most significant improvements is the new roof installed in 2024 at a cost of $28,574.51 (receipt available). Outside, a cozy fenced yard offers manageable outdoor space, while the detached garage provides a place to keep your car out of the weather and plenty of off street parking. Whether the vision is restoring a grand historic residence, creating flexible living arrangements, continuing a care related use where permitted, or exploring the possibilities offered by its original duplex design, this property presents a rare opportunity to own a home rich with character, architectural details, and future potential.
