25 4th Street

Good bones. Open without feeling exposed. Close to everything without being too close. Full of character without feeling frozen in time. Plenty of room to grow, but not so much that weekends disappear into cleaning. Over the years, 25 4th Street in Fox Chapel Area School District has been thoughtfully cared for and quietly adapted as life changed. An oversized bedroom became two, creating four true bedrooms. The second-floor powder room was evolved into a laundry space because yes. Fresh paint, refreshed landscaping, routine HVAC servicing, and years of attentive ownership mean the next chapter is ready to begin without a long to-do list. The details that make older homes special are still here. Original woodwork, arched doorways, and a staircase with more character than most new construction. The living room balances old and new with custom marble-topped built-ins framing the fireplace, while the kitchen offers granite countertops, solid maple cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar that’s hosted everything from rushed weekday breakfasts to conversations that lasted longer than anyone planned. The second level now offers three bedrooms, a full bath, ample linen storage, and a laundry with a half bath. The third floor (fourth bedroom or primary, either one) creates an escape that feels tucked away from the rest of the house with its own walk-in closet with built-ins and updated bath including a shower with a bench. Out back, the deck, fenced yard, and off-street parking check the practical boxes without asking for all the attention. Moments from neighborhood favorites, parks, local restaurants, boutiques, and everything that makes Aspinwall one of Pittsburgh’s most sought after.
