Freedom, PA Home for Rent

Freedom is a quaint neighborhood located along the Ohio River in Beaver County, about 25 miles north of Pittsburgh. Known for its historical significance, Freedom was once a prominent steamboat-building town and is home to the Norfolk Southern Conway Yard, a notable freight yard. The Capt. William Vicary House, a Colonial Revival-style mansion built in 1826, serves as a historic house museum and a key architectural landmark. The neighborhood features a mix of multi-level established homes, including renovated bungalows, American Foursquares, and contemporary homes from the 1970s, many with porches and concrete stairways. Some homes offer spectacular views of the countryside or the river. Freedom Memorial Park provides a green space for relaxation, while the riverbanks offer fishing spots and a playground with a basketball court. Although dining options within Freedom are limited to Fox’s Pizza Den, nearby Rochester offers a variety of eateries, including 1942 Tacos & Tequila and Brighton Hot Dog Shoppe. Small businesses and neighborhood markets are prevalent, especially in Monaca across the river. Pennsylvania Route 65 runs along the west side of Freedom, providing bus access and a direct route to downtown Pittsburgh, reachable in about 40 minutes by car.
