226 S Mathilda is a large Friendship Park 5 bedroom home; a classic 3 story brick with large front porch and 2 car garage in the rear. This lovingly cared for home has been in the same family for nearly 60 years. It has lots of interesting nooks and crannies, great closets, storage areas, a built-in stereo and bar cabinet. The original charming 1910 staircases remain. The basement is nice surprise for a Pittsburgh basement… featuring a vast ceramic tile floor, a partial kitchen, full bath, plenty of space for a shop, exercise room, or play space. The rear basement door leads out to a cozy space under the rear deck. Off the kitchen level is the deck and a huge patio over the garage. Large bright rooms on the upper floors feature many updated windows and nice views out the back. Close to Children’s Hospital and Bloomfield, it’s walkable to Lawrenceville, Shadyside and Oakland.
