Welcome to 213 Lytton Avenue in the heart of Schenley Farms, one of the best neighborhoods in Pittsburgh. This charming home is situated in a Historic District just two blocks from the University of Pittsburgh. Among its distinguished characteristics: spacious front porch with a view of The Cathedral of Learning, a grand entry leading to formal living room with gas log fireplace, and a formal dining room with leaded glass windows, fireplace and window seat.

This beautiful home boasts five bedrooms with 3.5 baths and a master ensuite with spacious closets and first-floor laundry. Enjoy the four fireplaces throughout, the lovely deck leading to Monet-inspired gardens and the fenced-in backyard and detached double car garage. There’s also a full basement with high ceilings which could be finished as a game room and entertainment area.
