Property details

About 222 Marshall Ave

The original Marshall House was built in 1862 for renowned Pittsburgh attorney Thomas M. Marshall & family. For the next 80 years, the homestead was owned by Marshall's descendants, & much of the North Side has Marshall as its namesake (such as...Marshall Ave.!). Over 160 years later, we present a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Pittsburgh's oldest & most historically significant homes. Two sprawling lots converge to create a magical yard surrounding the entire Italianate farmhouse, with a myriad of delightful foliage & 2 gazebos, along with parking. Inside, the grand staircase is reminiscent of times bygone, but the modified layout is conducive to modernity. The versatile first floor, with 2 baths, is complemented by 4 bedrooms upstairs & another 2 baths. A secret tower stirs the imagination, & the finished basement could be in-law suite or investment. The special features of this meticulously maintained home are too numerous to list. It must be seen, to be experienced!
