Congratulations.

Enjoy, that's going to be a fabulously up and coming neighborhood. Well, it already is, but you get my point. It'll be positively ritzy by the time your kid/kids are in high school.

Schools still need to catch up, but the charter Dilworth is improving quickly.. Hopefully Fulton does too.
Actually has a legit yard, garage, and is move in ready. The sellers are moving two houses down.. Their family outgrew the house. So, taking that as a good sign they are staying on the same street.

The Zoo? Very diverse neighborhood.

The Zoo? Very diverse neighborhood.

As opposed to those evil non diverse neighborhoods like squirrel hill, or uptown. Say what you mean or know what you say.

Dilworth is a Pittsburgh Public School. It's a magnet school. In any case , it really is a great school. Congrats on the home!

Absolutely. I have a number of friends who have moved in to that area and they are really enjoying it. Only going to get better. Congratulations to you and your family.

Lived on Callowhill St. while attending PITT in the 70's. Could hear the lions growling late at night. Great area. Good luck.

Congrats... as someone looking for a house in a new city now, I know how EXTREMELY stressful it is. Hope you guys look back 20 years from now loving your decision, and hope my wife and I can get as lucky.

5-7 yrs ago I saw a 6 br house in Highland Park for $220,000. Great neighborhood and cheap (at least back then).

Should have moved to Peters Township. 10 min drive from the T. Love it.
