Looking for a home with architectural character and room to host annual Thanksgiving dinners? Introducing 129 S Murtland Street, a distinctive mid-century home in the heart of Point Breeze, with a personality all its own and a layout that's anything but ordinary.
From the moment you enter, it's obvious what makes this home special. Vaulted wood-paneled ceilings, exposed beams, hardwood floors, expansive windows, and a prominent wood-burning fireplace set the scene. The multi-level design creates intriguing sightlines, a circular flow, and an easy connection between the main-level living spaces, each with its own personality. Host a crowd, settle in by the fire, or simply enjoy the architecture and light around you as it changes throughout the day.
Love to cook, entertain, or linger over coffee with a view? The spacious, expanded kitchen delivers with warm wood cabinetry, a generous center island, gas cooking, multiple ovens, two sinks, a coffee bar, and plenty of storage. And the adjoining breakfast area will likely steal your heart. With a vaulted ceiling, skylight, walls of windows, and doors opening to the backyard, this thoughtfully designed addition brings the outdoors right into your everyday life.
Wait until you see the garden. Fully fenced and lovingly cultivated, the backyard is a lush retreat with mature landscaping, established flower, herb, and vegetable gardens, and a generous patio with room for grilling, lounging, and entertaining. Whether you're an avid gardener, enjoy dining outdoors, or simply appreciate a peaceful place to unwind, you'll find plenty of reasons to spend time here.
Need room for more than the everyday? You've got it. Three upper-level bedrooms, including a primary suite with an ensuite bath, are complemented by a spacious, light-filled top-level office with room for two workstations, a finished lower-level game room, full bath, and a separate workout area or guest bedroom with access to the backyard. Think movie nights, creative projects, fitness, working from home, or hosting overnight guests. There's room for all of it, along with abundant storage and a two-car garage.
Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, the home blends original mid-century character with modern comforts, including a dual-fuel heating and cooling system and solar panels. The location is just as appealing. Point Breeze is known for beautiful tree-lined streets, distinctive architecture, nearby Frick Park, and easy access to the restaurants, shops, and cultural destinations that make Pittsburgh's East End so desirable. A home with history, personality, and room for whatever comes next.
