Shadyside Charm

Location, location is the realtor’s mantra, but rarely is it so true as this.  For access to the best of Pittsburgh urban living, 5120 Fifth Avenue in the heart of Shadyside is the place to be.

At the corner of Fifth and Wilkins, this great condo building is right at the center of several of Pittsburgh’s most desirable East End neighborhoods.  It’s a short walk to Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh, UMPC hospitals and the cultural center of Oakland.  Head off in another direction and a few minute’s trek ends at the unique shops and restaurants of Walnut Street in Shadyside.  A short drive down Wilkins leads to Murray Avenue and the Squirrel Hill shopping district.  Fifth Avenue leads to Penn Avenue and East Liberty, home of Trader Joes, Whole Foods and a soon to be opened Target.  Step just outside the front door for public transportation, minutes away from downtown and connections to the rest of the city.  As a base for living, working and exploring Pittsburgh, Shadyside is a location that can’t be beat and Shadyside real estate continues to be in high demand.

Number 102 is a charming and quiet two bedroom, two bath with spacious rooms, hardwood floors, lots of windows and loads of natural light.  Updates include a new gourmet kitchen and new baths.  The master bedroom includes a full bath and plenty of closet space.  There is a washer/dryer in the unit and additional laundry facilities and storage space for residents in the building.

The secure building offers a gracious front lobby, an elevator and an intercom system to admit guests.  Off-street parking is available in the back, with a new heated driveway and 2 common parking spaces each unit in the building.  All this in a well-maintained building with low condominium fees and a very attentive condo association.
