Shadyside

Located in Pittsburgh’s East End surrounded by Squirrel Hill, Oakland, and East Liberty, Shadyside’s mix of elegant Victorian homes, modern condominium buildings, trendy shops, and fine dining make it a popular neighborhood within Pittsburgh for a diverse population of the area’s affluent, young professionals, and students. Shadyside, which was named for the Pennsylvania railroad station in the area that was surrounded by woods and farmland in the 1800s, is still aptly named, as tree-lined streets still dominate the Shadyside neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Shadyside real estate consists of a wide selection of housing. Victorian mansions exist throughout the neighborhood, offering a choice of living in a well maintained historical residence, restored single family home, or converted, modern condomininium. The diverse listing of Shadyside homes for sale offers working professionals and families the opportunity to choose their preferred lifestyle: from large historic homes to small modern condominiums.

In addition to its thriving residential area, Shadyside consists of two shopping and entertainment areas on Walnut Street and Ellsworth Avenue. Combining stores from popular national chains such as Gap, Banana Republic, Coach, Victoria’s Secret and J. Crew with local shops and restaurants such as Soba, Shadyside attracts visitors from both the local vicinity and other areas of Pittsburgh.

Residents also will enjoy free wireless internet in the business district, the summer concert series and the Walnut Street art festival. Working professionals commuting to downtown Pittsburgh will find public transportation convenient via the busway.
