Value-add multi-unit investment opportunity in Pittsburgh’s Arlington neighborhood with substantial repair and mechanical work completed in 2026.

The first floor features a 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout. The second floor offers a 1+ bedroom configuration with additional renovation and finish work remaining, providing an opportunity for an investor to complete the space to their preferred specifications. The third floor includes a 1-bedroom, 1-bath layout with a kitchen and additional living space.

Operate it as a duplex with additional upper-level flex space, combine the second and third floors into a larger unit, or investigate the feasibility of a three-unit configuration subject to City of Pittsburgh approval and any required improvements. The deep rear yard offers alley access and potential for an off-street parking configuration, subject to buyer verification. The basement may also provide an opportunity for shared or unit-based laundry. With major repair work already addressed and additional value-add potential remaining, 225 Rothman St may appeal to landlords, cash investors, and buyers seeking an affordable Pittsburgh investment property they can continue improving and repositioning. Buyer to perform independent due diligence regarding zoning, permitted use, rental compliance, permits, occupancy requirements, and all proposed future improvements. Recent updates include a functional second-floor kitchen, updated bath spaces, two new furnaces, and recently resealed roof and box gutters. Live in one unit and rent the other, add it to an investment portfolio, or take advantage of a layout with a lot of possibilities.
