1711 E Carson St

In the heart of the South Side sits one of the city’s best kept secrets. Hidden behind this former bakery's 1890’s brick facade is an extraordinary, award-winning contemporary home designed by the esteemed Ross Bianco that serves as an artist’s residence and gallery. An iron gate leads you to the home’s dramatic main entrance, a two-story atrium lined with floor-to-ceiling windows shining natural light on the 20’ gallery walls. As you head upstairs, by residential elevator or a suspended staircase, you'll find a private two-level suite that can serve as guest quarters, additional living space, or even a fully separate apartment. Head through the upper atrium to the charming main residence, featuring formal living and dining rooms, enormous kitchen with fireplace and oversized island, second primary suite, a third en suite bedroom, laundry, and a rooftop deck with stellar views of Downtown Pittsburgh. The retail store and rear office space are income-producing with long-term tenants.
