Property Description
What if your Pittsburgh home came with enough land to actually dream big? Welcome to 539 N Fairmount St, where a charming 5-bedroom home is being offered together with the adjacent vacant lot, creating approximately 16,970 square feet of combined land—an extraordinary amount of outdoor space in the heart of the city.
The house offers approximately 1,800 square feet, with 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths, and is full of the charm and character that make Pittsburgh's older homes so special. Step onto the front porch and take in skyline views, or head out back to the deck, where the expansive property becomes the backdrop for everything from summer gatherings and garden parties to quiet mornings surrounded by greenery.
With the house lot measuring approximately 7,520 sq. ft. and the adjacent vacant lot approximately 9,450 sq. ft., this property offers possibilities that are hard to find in an urban setting. Create an expansive garden, grow your own food, build a backyard entertaining space, establish an urban homestead, create play or recreation areas, or simply enjoy the luxury of having room to breathe. For buyers with a vision, this is an opportunity to put a truly personal stamp on an East End property.
The home also features an integral one-car garage, with plenty of additional street parking.
And while the property gives you an uncommon amount of land, you don't have to give up the convenience of city living. Garfield's vibrant Penn Avenue Arts & Commercial District is nearby, with locally owned restaurants, coffee shops, galleries, creative businesses, shopping, and neighborhood services. The corridor is known for its distinctive arts and maker culture, dining, and monthly First Friday events.
Everyday necessities are also within easy reach, with grocery shopping and additional retail available nearby in Garfield, East Liberty, Bloomfield, Shadyside, and Lawrenceville. The neighborhood's central East End location also provides access to public transportation and major nearby business districts.
