About This Home

Arts & Crafts home with updates and river-view porch in Sewickley. Tucked into a private, wooded setting above the river, this residence blends period character with thoughtful upgrades. A chef's kitchen anchors the main level-Wolf range, built-in Bosch coffee system, handmade walnut island, and soapstone countertops-opening to dining and living spaces, plus mudroom and full bath. Upstairs: four bedrooms. Unfinished attic and basement offer storage/future potential. Systems upgraded (electrical, plumbing, forced-air A/C) and newer windows in much of the home (all per seller). Carport and paved driveway; 50-amp outlet for EV charging. Enjoy the expansive porch with panoramic river views; occasional train noise from valley below. Quaker Valley School District; convenient to the Sewickley Village and major routes.
