Pittsburgh-area residents seek first class accommodations in Findlay Township

Sitting just west of Pittsburgh, Findlay Township merges the suburban and the rural. “It’s a nice suburb of Pittsburgh with quick access to the airport and Downtown,” says Sara Leitera, Realtor at Berkshire Hathaway. Green fields and swathes of old growth maples cut across the landscape, where farms on vast acreage surround growing subdivisions and rural hamlets like Clinton. Industrial complexes and the airport itself take up plenty of space but provide jobs in return for the increase in noise and traffic. Even for professionals working in the heart of the business district, the commute is relatively short, and often can be done in under 30 minutes, making Findlay Township an increasingly popular neighborhood for those who want a slice of country life with their convenience.

Finding homes to land in

From manufactured homes hiding in well-organized parks to new-build modern traditional homes in subdivisions rising out of the countryside, from split levels in the hamlets to rangy rural farms, one of the biggest draws of Findlay Township is the variety of available options, as well as the potential to build to suit. Traditional town houses range from $150,000 to $350,000, with newer builds fetching higher prices as they feature modern layouts and community amenities. Most single-family homes are mid-century ranch-style homes and split-levels featuring colonial and Federal design influences, with prices reaching from $200,000 up to $500,000. Custom-built homes with farmhouse influence continue to sprout out of the fields that used to feature farm crops, and get from $325,000 to $800,000 and up.

Take off throughout the region and across the country

Residents of Findlay Township rely on their cars to get around – the region is not walkable and there are only two limited bus routes servicing the community. Bicyclists can enjoy some recreational rides, but the winding back roads require caution. Pittsburgh International Airport is right there, with the terminals accessible in mere minutes for some residents, offering flights across the country. Residents will have to be aware of this, as the noise of flyovers will be a factor day and night. 24-hour emergency care is available roughly 10 miles away at Heritage Valley – Sewickly, usually a 20-minute drive or so. UPMC Urgent Care Robinson is closer, roughly 10-15 minutes away, but only has daytime hours.

Lighting up the holidays like a runway
