This home is currently being remodeled. The bedrooms, full bath, and laundry room are completed, but living room and kitchen are still under construction. Completely functional, but we are still in the process of designing and finishing some areas. Formerly a one room schoolhouse built in 1876, this building was bought by a local family in 1955 and converted to a two story residence. Perfectly situated on a beautiful acre, this home offers a private outdoor seating area and deck, fire pit and unique "Pub Shed". Conveniently located near several major highways including the Pennsylvania Turnpike and Routes 70, 66, and 119\. Just 35 miles southeast of Pittsburgh, it's a quick drive into the city, or to the Laurel Highlands historic districts of Ligonier and Latrobe, and the popular ski resorts of Seven Springs and Hidden Valley. If you have an event in Pittsburgh, a quick hop onto the turnpike and you're in the city in 40 minutes! New Stanton is major intersection joining Rte 119 South toward Morgantown, WV; Rte 70 West toward Wheeling WV, Rte 70 East toward Somerset, Bedford and Harrisburg, and Rte 66 North toward Delmont. \*\*\*The outside fire pit and pub shed are available when the host is present and the weather is cooperative. This means that at the host's discretion there may be a fire and the pub shed may be open for lounging and karaoke. Otherwise feel free to use the seating area to relax. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Shampoo - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Designated smoking areas - Note from host: Property is fairly level, steps to some areas. ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Casino nearby - Cycling nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/61000000/60050000/60040900/60040896/fce1f706.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Exquisite 4Bed/3.5Bath Home W/Garage +Rooftop Deck South Side Flats - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 9.4 Exceptional 34 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-15&endDate=2026-01-16&selected=60040896&PinnedHotelID=60040896&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Private kitchen](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/122000000/121340000/121331200/121331141/0c404356.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 2 Bedroom 2 Bath | Heart of Downtown PGH!

From the moment we arrived, we felt safe and welcomed. The rental was clean and thoughtfully prepared, with special touches from the hosts that made it feel like home. We arrived after dark, and it was such a kind gesture to find the porch light on and soft lighting inside—it made settling in so easy. What mattered most to us was feeling safe, and this property absolutely delivered. It was also the perfect balance: close enough for a quick and easy trip into Pittsburgh, but far enough to enjoy a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle. Highly recommend this lovely rental to anyone looking for comfort, safety, and a touch of nature. It's a VRBO I wish I could have everywhere I go! ##### KN P.

And we made good use of the mistletoe!The interior was spacious, well furnished, and well equipped. The house and neighborhood were quiet.

Aug 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Comfortable, Clean, Welcoming Property This is a truly unique place located near all the main roads in SW Pennsylvania. To begin with, the building started life as a two-story high, brick & mortar one-room schoolhouse in 1876\. (The older I get, the more I appreciate the accomplishments of people from generations ago!) Later converted to two floors inside, the current owner and host has done a great job of making the interior beautiful while maintaining the schoolhouse appearance on the exterior. As for the interior, it's comfortable, very clean, and has everything one needs. I've stayed in a lot of vacation rentals and I have not seen one as well stocked as this one. Great place to stay! ##### David L. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Randy G. May 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Old school house stay We look for unique places to stay and this was unique staying in a near 150 year old school house. The building is a 2 story and bedrooms are upstairs. There is a 1/2 bath down and full bath up. Chet the owner met us at the car upon arrival and explained things. He is friendly and helpful. The exterior and interior are both in good condition. The LR ceiling has not been drywalled like the remainder of the unit but there is a sign stating that renovations are in progress. I gave a 5 star review because where else can you stay in a 150 year old former school and because the unit was clean and well stocked with everything (except body wash or soap in the shower}. There are a few things to mention. The neighborhood where the dwelling resides is just OK but we did feel safe. It also is very close to the owners house and basically separated by the owner's patio. I think that the experience would have been more authentic if there had been some old school furniture and more photos on the wall representative of the period. There is an organ in the LR which felt out of place. It was a good experience for us though and I would recommend. Thanks Chet. ##### Randy G.

I was impressed that it was warm when we entered the house despite being a fairly large older building. The laundry room is huge. Very nice having a half bath on the first floor in addition to full bath upstairs. Chet and Carole also provided a basket of snacks and coffee/tea selection for the Keurig. The stairs to the bedroom are a little steep and there's no rail on one side which could be a challenge for small children or seniors. It was also nice having good sized TVs in both bedrooms as well as the living room. Having an extra room in addition to the bedrooms upstairs was great too! Chet was very friendly and helpful when we communicated with him as well. The dishwasher hooks up to the kitchen sink (isn't plumbed in), but thankfully Chet said he'd take care of it after we checked out. Overall a great experience! ##### Melissa S.
