This sunny, one-bedroom apartment with huge windows has a true city feeling! It comfortably fits two and is centrally located in the eclectic and diverse neighborhood of Garfield. This is a welcoming and inclusive rental hosted by a friendly couple who live and work in the neighborhood.

The space
This is a super-cute apartment on the second floor of charming Penn Ave building in the heart of Garfield. If you love lots of light, warm colors, high ceilings, vintage charm, a diverse and eclectic walkable neighborhood, and historic feel this cozy place is perfect for you!

Here are the details:

The layout is a two-room studio. The first room has two huge south-facing windows, 12 foot ceilings, and a faux-fireplace. It serves as a bed/living combo.

The 2nd room is a kitchen. The stove and refrigerator were purchased last year. Original pocket doors (that work!) separate the two rooms.

The bathroom is also newly renovated (new shower, toilet, vanity+mirror, extra toiletries, and hair dryer).

We provide fluffy towels and high threadcount sheets/linens.

There is a brand new furnace exclusive to the unit that you control and the unit has a large window A/C unit to keep it cool.

The space is ideal for one person, a couple, or close friends as the queen bed and full-size futon are in the same room.

There are two wooden wardrobes for clothing and coats.

Private entry via Penn Ave or our side door from the rear parking pad.

Free internet... you can hop right on our building's FIOS which is fast and awesome.

There is free, off-street parking in the rear of the building in a parking pad that accommodates up to a mid-size SUV/Van.

Just down the street from People's Indian Restuarant, Spak Brothers Pizza and Sandwiches, Commonplace Coffee, Prairie [Coming Soon!], Pho Minh, Trams, Brillobox and so much more!

For short residencies or visiting family, the unit is within walking distance or a short drive to Children's Hospital and West Penn Hospital.

8 blocks from Yoga Hive's awesomeness for your physical fitness needs.

Bloomfield, East Liberty, and trendy Lawrenceville are just a few blocks away, with many more culinary and entertainment options.

If you are a runner, the streets of neighboring Friendship are nice and flat. Allegheny cemetery is also a few blocks away which is a lovely place to walk/run.

Green space can be found in Friendship park and nearby Highland Park.

This apartment is not for you if:

* You do not like eclectic, urban settings.
* You require a TV
* You require a yard.
* Your daily (and nightly) habits are possibly noisy and/or disruptive [the apartment is located above a 9-5 business/office].
* You are not capable of climbing stairs [there is one flight up to the 2nd floor unit].
* You require a bathtub. The bathroom is fully renovated with a lovely new and spacious shower stall.
* You require 100% quiet to sleep. There is some light traffic noise from Penn Ave.

Please let us know if you have any questions about this apartment. We'd love to host you in Pittsburgh!

Neighborhood highlights

We love our eclectic and diverse neighborhood. Garfield has many art galleries and installations, restaurants, and businesses. It's an area that has seen much revitalization recently, but there are still buildings that are boarded up on our block. We feel that the neighborhood is a great asset to our location, but realize it might not be for everyone.

Meet your hosts

Born in the 80s
Where I went to school: Goshen College + FIT
My name is Kate and I'm from Pittsburgh, PA. My husband Nik and I work and manage our Airbnb units in our 1910 mixed-use apartment building. Nik is a web developer, I'm an artist, and we're both Airbnb super hosts and property managers. We'd love to have you stay in one of our colorful apartments!! We also enjoy staying in Airbnbs when we do our own traveling. Our favorite things: estate sales, hosting potlucks, dark chocolate, road trips, interior design, playing cribbage, exploring small towns, rocking our 1950's record player, home renovation/restoration, and of course our baby daughter. We take breakfast very seriously—both making it and enjoying local cafe and diner fare. Some of our favorite places to visit: Biarritz, Maui, Orcas Island, Asheville, Key West, NYC, Portland, and so many more. We also really love California (especially Sonoma) ... our honeymoon was a road trip down the 1 paired with a coastal train ride. It was incredible! Please feel free to send me a message if you have any questions or just want to say hello.
