Property Description
Ready to trade rent payments for a place of your own? 1240 Superior Ave offers an affordable opportunity to step into homeownership, start building equity, and make a home your own over time. With an impressive 2,649 square feet, three bedrooms, and the character that comes with a home built in 1907, this is a refreshing alternative for anyone tired of smaller, cookie cutter spaces.
Inside, original hardwood floors add warmth and personality throughout much of the home, while the generous square footage provides plenty of flexibility for everyday living, entertaining, working from home, hobbies, or simply having room to spread out. The kitchen and bathrooms are dated but functional, making this a great fit for a buyer who can see the potential and is comfortable tackling cosmetic projects as time and budget allow.
Several of the bigger ticket items have already seen updates. The gas furnace is approximately three years old, the water heater was replaced within the last five years, and the roof is approximately ten years old. The windows are also in good condition, and electrical improvements include updated fans and fixtures, 220 amp service, and an updated breaker box. Outside, vinyl siding helps simplify exterior upkeep, while the fenced backyard and rear patio provide your own outdoor space for relaxing, grilling, gardening, or pets.
The North Side location adds another layer of convenience. Downtown Pittsburgh and the North Shore are easily accessible, along with major roadways connecting you throughout the Pittsburgh area. Nearby bus routes provide additional transportation options, while local parks and Pittsburgh's riverfront destinations give you plenty to explore close to home. Coffee, dining, shopping, entertainment, and some of the city's best known attractions are all within easy reach.
If you have been waiting for an opportunity to stop renting and start investing in a place of your own, this could be the one. The home may not have a brand new kitchen or perfectly updated finishes, but that is part of the opportunity. Move in, tackle projects at your own pace, preserve the original character you love, and gradually turn more than 2,600 square feet into a home that feels completely your own.
