About This Home

Welcome to 513 Lorenz Ave, an updated three-story home in Pittsburgh’s Elliott neighborhood offering space, flexibility, and modern improvements. This residence currently features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with a finished third floor that provides exceptional versatility—ideal for up to three additional bedrooms, a home office, playroom, or guest suite to fit your lifestyle. The heart of the home is the updated kitchen, featuring quartz countertops, a stylish new backsplash, refreshed cabinetry, and updated appliances, all flowing seamlessly into the large dining room—perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. From the kitchen, step out to the rear yard and covered porch, ideal for year-round grilling and outdoor entertaining. The home also features a spacious first-floor laundry room, offering added convenience and functionality. The home offers spacious bedrooms with great natural light, and a thoughtful bathroom layout that includes a newly added main-floor full bath for rare first-level convenience, along with a fully updated second-floor bathroom with modern finishes including new plumbing, toilet, vanity and shower surround. Beyond the cosmetic upgrades, the home has received significant improvements including new drywall and trim, HVAC upgrades with the installation of central air, a brand-new electrical panel installed in 2025, new LVP flooring, new carpeting in the bedrooms, updated light fixtures, and fresh neutral paint throughout. The roof is approximately six years old, offering peace of mind, and the third floor is equipped with baseboard heating for comfortable year-round use. Outdoor living adds to the charm—enjoy a cup of coffee on the covered front porch or relax with friends in this friendly, walkable neighborhood. At the rear of the property is existing storage space that was formerly the basement of a garage; if rebuilt, this area could provide off-street parking or a future garage, adding even more long-term value. Located just five minutes from downtown Pittsburgh with quick access to Steuben Street, Route 65, I-279, and Route 376, commuting is easy. The home is also within walking distance to the West End Overlook, celebrated for its stunning city skyline views and as a popular spot to watch the July 4th fireworks. Close to parks, dining, shopping, and public transit, this property blends neighborhood charm with city convenience. Move-in ready with exceptional flexibility and future potential, 513 Lorenz Ave is a rare opportunity in a prime Pittsburgh location.
