About 1517 Methyl Street
Classic Pittsburgh character, generous room sizes and an incredible amount of usable space come together in this Beechview home. From the moment you arrive, the covered front porch and distinctive architecture create a welcoming first impression. Step inside to a spacious entry hall highlighted by original-style dark woodwork and a beautiful staircase that immediately gives the home character. The main level offers an exceptionally comfortable layout with large living and dining spaces rather than the small rooms often found in city homes. The living room is a standout, featuring a dramatic stone fireplace surrounded by custom built-in cabinetry and shelving, recessed lighting, detailed ceiling trim and a large front window that fills the room with natural light. An oversized opening connects the living and dining areas, creating an easy flow while still allowing each room to maintain its own identity. The dining room offers plenty of space for a full-size table and entertaining. The kitchen has been updated with rich wood cabinetry, extensive counter space, tile backsplash, recessed lighting and a double-bowl sink positioned beneath a large window overlooking the backyard. A rear door provides direct access to the covered patio and outdoor space. Upstairs, the second floor offers two exceptionally spacious bedrooms and a full bath. The primary bedroom includes a large walk-in closet, while the additional bedroom is also generously sized with ample closet space. Continue to the finished third floor where two additional rooms provide tremendous flexibility. Use them for guest space, home offices, a playroom, hobby rooms, gaming space, workout area or whatever best fits your lifestyle. This entire level gives the home versatility rarely found in a traditional city home. The lower level offers an abundance of additional space with laundry, storage, workshop potential and plenty of room for future possibilities. Outside, the rear of the home opens to a covered patio plus an additional patio area overlooking a large fenced backyard. There is plenty of room for pets, gardening, entertaining, play or simply enjoying your own outdoor space in the city. Off-street parking adds another important convenience. Additional highlights include two working fireplaces, updated mechanicals, abundant storage, generous room sizes, covered front and rear outdoor spaces and flexible finished living areas spanning three levels. Located in Beechview, the home offers the convenience of city living with easy access to the T, Downtown Pittsburgh, neighborhood shopping and dining, parks and major routes throughout the South Hills. If you're looking for a home with character, space, outdoor living and the opportunity to make it your own, this one offers far more than you might expect from the outside.
