A Rare Architectural Masterpiece Just North of PittsburghSet on 24.8 acres of gently rolling hills and open countryside, this one-of-a-kind, architect-designed contemporary home is a stunning blend of enduring craftsmanship, striking design, and modern comfort. Located just 25 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh and 45 minutes from the airport, this private retreat offers both serenity and convenience.Originally built in 1979, the home is anchored by a monolithic 10-inch concrete foundation and showcases dramatic tube-and-beam construction using steel and pine.
