Pittsburgh, PA 15212 – 3-Story Historic Townhome With Strong Value-Add Potential. Classic North Side character and solid bones make this 3-story brick townhome a great opportunity for investors or landlords. Offering 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and four decorative marble fireplaces, this property has the charm and layout to justify strategic mechanical and cosmetic updates. The home features a mix of hardwood and carpet flooring, a brick foundation with basement for storage and utilities, city water and sewer, and no known flood, termite, or lead-based paint issues. Heating is forced-air natural gas, but the furnace needs replacement. There is no central A/C; however, three floor-standing A/C units are included. The flat tar-and-pitch roof is approximately 25 years old, and the water heater is about 15 years old. Some new light fixtures have been installed and simply need wiring reconnected to be fully operational. All major appliances stay, and the seller is downsizing and leaving additional personal items, offering a partially furnished, easy starting point. With a few key updates—new furnace, minor electrical work, and modernized finishes—this townhome can become a strong long-term rental or a character-rich residence in a high-demand Pittsburgh neighborhood.
