Description

Elevated Tranquility | A Floating Escape on the Allegheny

Perched along the quiet currents of the Allegheny River, this exquisite floating home offers a truly one-of-a-kind escape. Thoughtfully designed and brimming with contemporary touches, the home is moored on a custom-built barge that delivers both style and serenity. From its elevated living space to its wrap-around decks, every detail has been curated to enhance the experience of life on the water. Floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors open up to sweeping views of the river, immersing guests in the natural beauty that surrounds them.

The home's reverse floor plan maximizes light and scenery, placing the open-concept living space on the upper level. Here, a fully equipped kitchen with a peninsula seamlessly blends into the cozy living area, complete with a see-through gas fireplace and modern tech comforts like a smart TV and high-speed internet. Step through the patio doors to enjoy al fresco lounging or dining with panoramic river views. Whether you're sipping coffee at sunrise or enjoying a glass of wine at dusk, the upper level offers a tranquil haven unlike any other.

Below, the lower level hosts two serene bedrooms, each furnished with twin beds that can be converted into spacious kings for ultimate flexibility and comfort. A beautifully appointed full bathroom features dual rainfall shower heads, offering a spa-like retreat after a day of adventure. Though the home is anchored, gentle movements from passing boats or wind can be felt, adding to the sensation of being immersed in a truly aquatic lifestyle.

Beyond its captivating design, this floating home is ideally positioned to explore the cultural and natural richness of the Pittsburgh area. Stroll along the nearby riverfront trails, explore the shops and eateries of nearby Aspinwall and Fox Chapel, or head into downtown Pittsburgh—only a short drive away—for renowned museums, sports venues, and fine dining. For those drawn to nature, the region offers excellent kayaking, biking, and scenic parks along the river’s edge.

This property invites guests to unwind in elevated comfort while experiencing the gentle rhythm of river life. Combining modern sophistication with the charm of a floating retreat, it's a stay that leaves a lasting impression.
