Urban Retreat with Garage on Mt. Washington

Centrally located on Mount Washington with easy access to all of Pittsburgh. Walk to restaurants & bars on Shiloh Street, a grocery store, and the Grandview Overlooks. Just steps from the Incline which connects to a trolley to downtown, the North Shore, stadiums, and casino. A perfect home base for exploring the city and seeing some of Pittsburgh's most popular attractions.

Inside the Home
Enter the front door, and walk into an open floor plan featuring a cozy living area with two large couches and a 65" wall-mounted TV. Soaring 9’ ceilings make the space feel even bigger. Dine at a table for four, set beneath an arc lamp and next to a window overlooking the side yard. The fully stocked modern kitchen includes everything you need to cook, plus a drip coffee maker with complimentary grounds.

Step out onto the back deck with two zero-gravity chairs, which are perfect for relaxing. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious full bathroom with double sinks. You can access the bathroom from the main hallway or directly from the large king bedroom, which includes two long closets, a ceiling fan, and a luxurious bed.

The third floor has a bright, airy bedroom with two twin beds, skylight, ceiling fan, and a walk-in closet. The garage-level basement includes a new washer and dryer and offers another way to enter the home through the garage.

Featured Amenities
Board Games
A variety of games for all ages and group sizes in the living room.

Yard
A small grassy side yard offers a convenient spot for your pup to get some fresh air.

Outdoor Deck
Enjoy your morning coffee or late-night drinks with two comfy zero-gravity chairs and a table.

Coffee, Tea & Snacks
Drip coffee maker with complimentary grounds, a selection of teas, and light check-in snacks. Grocery store is just steps away for easy shopping.

Parking
Private garage for 1 car, plus 2 additional spaces in the driveway behind the garage.

Essentials Included
Bath towels, paper products, dishes, cookware, soap, shampoo, body wash, lotion, Q-tips, laundry supplies, and more.

What’s Not Included
Please bring your own toothbrush, toothpaste, and any personal items you’ll need.
We provide a Pack 'n Play-style crib, but no other baby gear (e.g., high chairs, gates). A dog gate is included, but it’s not designed for toddlers or staircase safety.

Guest Access
Enjoy three off-street parking spots: two in the driveway and one in the garage. The home is located in Mount Washington, a walkable and safe neighborhood with restaurants, bars, a bakery, coffee shop, ice cream parlor, and grocery store just steps away.

You're a 5-minute walk to the Grandview Overlooks and the Monongahela Incline, which connects to the trolley for easy rides into downtown and beyond. By car, it’s just 8–10 minutes to downtown Pittsburgh and the North Shore, home to Acrisure Stadium, PNC Park, the casino, and Carnegie Science Center.

You can check yourself in using the front door or garage keypad. I’ll send your access code a couple of days before your arrival.

Fees & Booking Reminders
If you see a “Guest Service Fee” in your total, that’s charged by the booking platform - not us. When reserving, please make sure to include the correct number of guests and dogs (limit 2).

Just what we needed

Property was just as advertised and exactly what we needed. We found the place clean and comfortable and close to restaurants we enjoy and less than a 15-minute drive to Pitt. The host even accommodated a late check out so my family could attend an evening event and leave our pet until it ended. Alleyway to access the garage is narrow and challenging with an SUV however did not affect our enjoyment of the stay. We would without question rent again.

Steelers trip

Property is an excellent spot to stay and the house is taken care of very well. Mt Washington has restaurants within walking distance and the overlook to the city is amazing. Must be able to do stairs for bedrooms and the area has very steep roads when walking around.

Lovely House

This house was very clean and comfortable. It was also well equipped for cooking. The streets surrounding it are very narrow, which is common in that area but if you have a choice, I would take the smaller car. With that being said, we did just fine with my full size tri k.
