Description from Fannie Mae HomePath
2 Glenvue Dr, Pittsburgh, PA 15237. 4 bed | built 1940 | 7,514 sq ft lot. Some houses catch your eye. 2 Glenvue Drive holds it. From its dramatic Tudor Revival exterior to its enduring craftsmanship, this circa-1940 home offers rare architectural character in a well-connected Ross Township location. Its steeply pitched clay-tile roof, decorative half-timbering, brick-and-stucco construction, stone quoining, arched entry, and three-part leaded diamond-pane windows create an unmistakable storybook facade. Inside, the main level unfolds through broad arched openings and features hardwood floors, plaster walls, crown molding, and a commanding stone fireplace. Glass French doors open from the living room to a large den lined with built-in bookshelves, equally suited to a library, TV room, office, or quiet escape. A second set of French doors leads to a private patio, allowing the room to feel peacefully removed while still connected to the heart of the home. With its light-filled windowed alcove, the formal dining room offers more than space for a table. A reading nook with your favorite chair, a bar cart, or a dramatic houseplant sanctuary? The kitchen features warm maple cabinetry, plentiful storage, and direct access to the rear patio. A convenient half bath completes the main floor. Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms, each with ample closet space. The primary and an adjacent secondary bedroom share a Jack-and-Jill full bath finished in vintage Carrara tile, while a second full bathroom is located nearby beside the original laundry chute and linen closet. The basement is unusually functional for a home of this age, with tall ceilings, laundry facilities, direct access to the two-car integral garage, and custom cedar-lined closets spanning two walls. Outside, mature trees and established landscaping frame several outdoor spaces with room to dine, garden, entertain, or simply disappear for a while with a book. A hot tub set at deck level creates a private place to unwind. Just off Perry Highway, the home offers convenient access to I-279, Downtown Pittsburgh, and the shopping, dining, and everyday amenities of the McKnight Road corridor and Ross Park Mall. 2 Glenvue Drive offers generous space, thoughtful function, and genuine architectural distinction, with period details that simply are not manufactured anymore. This home is ready for its next chapter.
