About this home

"Heaven's Corner" A Custom Built, Vintage, Mid-Century Home tucked away privately on over an acre of "Park" like grounds.. Take in the wonder of this tranquil setting with majesctic, mature trees & shrubs, walkways meandering through a meadow that gently lead up to the house, well groomed lawns, and rose filled planters.. Enjoy the sounds of chirping birds and a breeze that whispers from the trees.. The backyard includes a huge (24 X 44) pool with decking trimmed in brick walkways, a (10 X 19) Gazebo, garden areas, and large patios off the family room & master bedroom.. Gated concrete driveway has ample room for RV parking and leads to a 2 car oversized detached garage with attached storage/work structure.. It's a must see to really appreciate the "Timeless" character and charm that this almost 4,000. sq ft estate has to offer.. A few of the highlights include a master wing with sitting room, 2 way fireplace, and recessed lighting (could be perfect for mother-in-law or extended family); a unique, extra large, sanctuary like, living room ready for accomodating all sorts of special or holiday, family gatherings; classic hardwood floors; distinctive doors & windows that allow lots of uplifting natural light; vaulted open & cross beam ceilings.. Other fine features are 2 heating & cooling systems as well as 2 water heaters; copper plumbing; two 4-fixture baths (one with a walk-in shower) & a 1/2 bath; fresh paint in and out; some new dual pane windows & 5 foot sliding door, as well as solid core panel doors; quaint kitchen with decorative back splash, built-in appliances, & an elephant knob pantry.. Seller has made recent improvemants and or upgrades.. Conveniently located near South Hills Country Club, shopping malls, schools & colleges, parks, equestrian center, and tansportation.. ** NOTE for potential added value is the fact that it is zoned for horses (the meadow area could work very well for horse facilities); Developer possiblities for a lot split, multiple ADUs or perhaps both??? It's a rare opportunity for someone to own their "Corner of Heaven"
