About 5470 Hillcrest Street
Renovated from the floors to the roof, with the big-ticket work already done, in the heart of Garfield.
Cross the threshold and the floor plan does the talking. Engineered hardwood and natural light carry you from the living room through the dining area to a kitchen worth the trip. The sightline from the front door to the back of the home runs long and clean, the kind that makes every room feel twice its size, and the living room fits a full sectional with space to spare.
The kitchen opens to the dining area, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. Dark, swirling granite runs from counter to backsplash and anchors an efficient work triangle, with the range, sink, and French door refrigerator exactly where you want them. Solid wood white shaker cabinetry, matte black hardware, stainless steel appliances, and an undermount double sink looking out over the backyard complete the space.
Upstairs, three bedrooms with engineered hardwood, six-panel doors, and ample closet space show that the design didn't stop at the staircase. The primary has three closets and real room to settle in. The renovated full bath pairs a marble-topped double vanity with a subway-tiled tub and shower.
Just off the kitchen, stairs lead down to the ground level and a second full bath with a subway-tiled walk-in shower and ceiling-mounted rain head. The partially finished lower level has served as a home gym and is ready to become a family room, game room, or guest suite.
Out back, a large covered deck and new privacy fence turn the yard into a private retreat. Out front, a covered porch built for morning coffee.
The big-ticket items are already handled: architectural shingle roof (2022), EPDM flat roof and seamless gutters (2024), furnace, central air, and water heater (2022), and radon mitigation (2023). Smart thermostat, Ring security, and Whirlpool washer and dryer included.
All of this comes with a location that's hard to beat. Garfield puts you close to the galleries, restaurants, and coffee shops of the Penn Ave Arts District, with easy access to East Liberty and Lawrenceville, and minutes to West Penn, Shadyside, and Children's hospitals.
Updated where it counts and ready from day one. Unpack and you're done. Previously rented at $2,650/month, making this a strong option for investors or owner-occupants.
