Just beyond the living area, you’ll find the fully stocked kitchen and dining space, with seating for 4 at the dining table plus 4 more at the island. The laundry room is located just off the kitchen for added convenience during longer stays. Both bedrooms are located upstairs and feature king beds, making the second level feel private and tucked away from the main living area below. The home includes 1 full bathroom. Please note that the upstairs is accessed by a spiral staircase, so the layout may not be ideal for guests with mobility concerns.

We are responsive, easy to reach, and always happy to help so you can enjoy a smooth, stress-free stay. This home is tucked into Heidelberg, a quieter residential pocket just outside Carnegie that offers a more laid-back, local feel while still keeping you close to everyday essentials and city access. Carnegie’s Main Street area is nearby, where you’ll find local restaurants, coffee shops, and small-town charm, and downtown Pittsburgh is about 6 miles away for easy access to the city’s biggest attractions. It’s a great fit for guests who want a more peaceful home base without feeling far from the action. Free street parking is available right out front or on nearby Short Street, and this location is best suited for guests planning to get around by car or rideshare. Carnegie’s Main Street district is the closest useful local hub, with shops, coffee, and restaurants nearby. 🚶 Approximate Walking Times: 🍺 Elly’s – about 3 minutes 🛒 ALDI – about 4 minutes 🥞 Gab & Eat – about 5 minutes 🌳 Carnegie Park – about 12 minutes 🏘 Carnegie Main Street district – about 15 minutes 🚗 Approximate Drive Times: 🏙 Downtown Pittsburgh – about 15 minutes 🛍 Strip District – about 17 minutes ⚾ PNC Park – about 17 minutes 🏈 Acrisure Stadium (Heinz Field! 😏) – about 17 minutes 🏒 PPG Paints Arena – about 18 minutes 🎓 University of Pittsburgh – about 18 minutes 📚 Carnegie Mellon University – about 20 minutes ✈️ Pittsburgh International Airport – about 20 minutes Easy access to I-376 makes it simple to head into the city, catch a game, or get to the airport without staying right in the middle of downtown.

I absolutely loved my stay! The place was beautiful, incredibly clean, and had so many thoughtful touches. I especially loved the record player! The hosts were also so helpful and flexible with my check-out dates, which I really appreciated. Such a great experience all around, and I will definitely be back!

I thought it would be cool to stay in a place that used to be a chapel. The place was fantastic. The place was modern, clean, quiet, and spacious. It was a very nice place. The only negative thing about it is the neighborhood. It seemed very trashy and run down. I would stay again even though that was a drawback.
