About This Home

Step back in time without sacrificing modern comforts in this beautifully updated 5-bedroom, 3½-bath home, originally built in 1885, nestled in the heart of Emlenton Borough. Rarely does a property like this become available—offering historic charm, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable location along the scenic Allegheny River. This rare home has 2 lots, the first lot has the home and out buildings, while the second lot is across the street along the river. With this home you own one of the few lots along the river. From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the inviting covered front porch, perfectly positioned to take in peaceful river views. Best of all, the home is not located in a flood zone, providing added peace of mind while enjoying waterfront living. Inside, you’ll find the character you’ve been searching for with soaring ceilings, elegant crown molding, and a stunning marble fireplace, beautifully blended with today’s modern conveniences. The completely updated main level features a gorgeous new kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, a double-oven gas range, and plenty of space for gathering with family and friends. A newly added half bath adds convenience for guests. The spacious floor plan offers five bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, providing room for everyone. Outside, both the home and outbuildings feature durable metal roofs, offering long-lasting protection and low maintenance. One of the property’s most unique features is the detached outbuilding, which offers endless possibilities. Whether you envision a guest house, in-law suite, rental apartment, home office, studio, or workshop, the flexibility is yours. Outdoor enthusiasts will love having the Allegheny River just steps away and direct access to the Rails to Trails bike path, making it easy to enjoy biking, walking, fishing, kayaking, or simply relaxing while taking in the beautiful scenery.
