Set in the heart of Squirrel Hill, 5828 Nicholson offers a refined blend of timeless character, thoughtful updates and an exceptional neighborhood setting. Just moments from the shops, cafés, restaurants, bakeries and local favorites along Forbes and Murray Avenues, the home is perfectly positioned to enjoy the walkable, vibrant lifestyle that makes Squirrel Hill so special. Inside, original wood floors lend warmth and character, complemented by significant recent improvements including a high-efficiency heating and central air system, Renewal by Andersen windows and front door, a newer roof and gutters, and fresh interior and exterior paint. Modern lines in the open kitchen are complemented by the warmth of the cork floor and texture of the concrete countertop. The coffered ceiling in the comfortable living room is accented by the light that shines through from the adjacent sunroom, currently used as a convenient home office. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms enjoy an abundance of sun through their large windows while the third floor bonus room provides an opportunity for an den, play room or flex space. Outdoors, a composite deck, paver patio, landscaped garden and new fencing create a beautifully finished retreat for both quiet enjoyment and effortless entertaining. With parks, universities, hospitals and Pittsburgh’s cultural amenities all within easy reach, this is a home that pairs classic appeal with modern comfort in one of the city’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
