☆☆ BEDROOMS ☆☆

The bedroom is a bold space. Yellow walls, purple-painted hardwood floors, and a king bed dressed in soft, comfortable bedding give it a personality that is hard to forget. A full dresser and a Smart TV sit opposite the bed on a dramatic black accent wall with a large floor mirror, and a ceiling fan keeps things comfortable year-round. A decorative white mantel adds a nod to the building's age and history. The shared bathroom is accessed directly off the bedroom.

☆☆ BATHROOMS ☆☆

The bathroom is one of the most talked-about features of this apartment. A genuine clawfoot tub with an overhead shower and curtain surround lets you soak or rinse off, your call. Teal-painted beadboard wainscoting, blue tile floors, a white vanity with a marble-look counter, and chrome wall sconces give the room a lot of character for its size. An open shelving unit holds fresh towels and a wicker hamper, and dedicated makeup cloths are provided. The bathroom is fully stocked with body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and essentials before every stay.

☆☆ KITCHEN & RELAXING AREAS ☆☆

The kitchen leans fully into its retro personality. A vintage-style gray refrigerator, original white metal cabinets with chrome hardware, and a teal-and-white checkerboard tile backsplash make it look like a set from a mid-century cooking show. Practically speaking, it is well stocked. The gas stove handles real cooking, and the kitchen comes with a microwave, toaster oven, blender, full set of cookware, pots, pans, dishware, silverware, and spices. A coffee and tea bar with a drip maker, stacked mugs, and a selection of teas takes care of mornings. A two-person dining table sits by the window in a bright, easy spot for a meal.

The living room is where this apartment really shows off. Bright yellow walls, purple floors, a teal velvet tufted sofa, and a mid-century red armchair are not subtle, and that is the point. A 65" Smart TV hangs above a decorative mantel. A glass coffee table holds a glass chess set, and the mantel shelf keeps the board games: Scattergories, Jenga, Apples to Apples, and a 1,000-piece puzzle. Colorful original artwork fills the walls. It is a comfortable, lived-in space with a genuine sense of fun.

☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆

This apartment does not have a private outdoor space. Street parking is available on Mellon St and is generally easy to find.

The neighborhood itself makes up for it. East Liberty is one of Pittsburgh's most walkable and active East End neighborhoods, with a strong dining and bar scene right outside the door. Tana Ethiopian Cuisine, Paris 66 Bistro, Duo's Taqueria, Hey Babe, and Casbah are all within easy reach. Bakery Square, the Kelly Strayhorn Theater, and the Pittsburgh Glass Center are close by as well. UPMC, the University of Pittsburgh, and Carnegie Mellon University are all within a short drive, making this a practical choice for medical stays, visiting academics, and work travelers.
