These were the five highest-priced home sales reported in the Pittsburgh Area, Pennsylvania for the week ending November 8, 2026, and together they came to $4.86 million. All five are in the city of Pittsburgh, with two of them in Squirrel Hill North.
The group runs from three single-family homes to a townhouse and a condominium, and from a brick home built in 1920 to one built in 2000. Two of the sales closed at the same price, and two brokerages each listed a pair of the five homes.
No. 1 — $1,140,000 · 416 Denniston St, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
The week’s top sale is a three-story brick colonial in Shadyside, built in 1920, that sold for $1,140,000. It has five bedrooms, three full baths and one half bath, and about 2,952 square feet of living space on a lot of 3,484 square feet.
The first floor is open, with the kitchen, living area and dining area running together. The kitchen has custom cabinetry, soft-close drawers and stainless steel appliances. On the second floor are three bedrooms, among them a primary suite with its own fireplace, a custom closet and an updated bath, along with the washer and dryer. The third floor has the other two bedrooms and a large open room that could serve as a family room, a playroom or an office. The home has three fireplaces in all, an unfinished basement and a detached garage, and the shops and restaurants of Shadyside are a few minutes away. The property last sold in 2013 for $675,000.

No. 2 — $1,000,000 · 212 Schenley Rd, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Just steps from Schenley Park and its golf course, this three-story brick townhouse in Squirrel Hill North sold for $1,000,000, the same price as the Fox Chase home in third place. Built in 1982, it has three bedrooms, four bathrooms and about 3,303 square feet on a lot of 1,742 square feet.
The living room has hardwood floors, recessed lighting and custom built-ins, and there is a gas fireplace. French doors lead from the kitchen, which has counter seating, to a landscaped brick patio. Upstairs, the primary suite has vaulted ceilings, two walk-in closets with laundry tucked into one of them, and a bath with a skylight, a double vanity and a large glass shower. A second bedroom shares that level, while the third bedroom sits on the lower level with its own bath, a layout that suits a guest suite or an office. The design also leaves room for an elevator to be added later. The property last sold in 2014 for $576,000.

No. 3 — $1,000,000 · 1512 Fox Chase Ln, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
The French Provincial home in Fox Chase is the newest of the five, built in 2000, and it has the most bathrooms of the group: six, five of them full and one a half bath. Its five bedrooms tie it with the Shadyside home for the most in this Top 5. The three-story brick home stands on 0.89 acres and sold for $1,000,000.
A governor’s drive leads to a two-story foyer, with formal living and dining rooms and an office finished with custom built-ins and a boxed beam ceiling. The kitchen has a center island and opens to a morning room and a family room with a fireplace and a wet bar. Outside are patios, an outdoor kitchen and a water feature, with open ground that could take a pool or a sport court.
The walk-out lower level works almost as a separate residence, with its own full kitchen, a pub-style bar, a game room, a fitness area, a full bath and a bonus room. There is a finished third level as well, plus two laundry rooms and a mudroom.

No. 4 — $890,000 · 414 Bucknell St, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Built in 1927 on a tree-lined street in Point Breeze, this home has been renovated and enlarged with additions on the first and third floors. It has four bedrooms, two full baths and one half bath, and about 1,900 square feet on a lot of 4,103 square feet.
The biggest change is at the top. A dormer turned the third floor into a primary suite with a sitting area on the landing, a walk-in closet and a wet-room bath with a freestanding soaking tub, a skylit rainfall shower, a double vanity and heated floors. The suite has its own heating and air-conditioning system.
Downstairs, the redesigned kitchen has cabinetry up to the ceiling, quartzite counters, an induction range, a coffee bar and an oversized island with seating. The enlarged first floor continues into a dining room whose French doors open to a composite deck, and a barn door closes off the mudroom, the laundry and a full bath. On the second floor, original glass doorknobs survive beside new hardwood and a renovated hall bath with heated tile. A covered front porch faces the street, and the flat, fenced yard is planted with hydrangeas, lilacs and boxwoods. There is a detached garage and a long driveway, and Frick Park, Mellon Park and Bakery Square are within reach. The property last sold in 2021 for $382,500.
The home went under contract seven days after it was listed and sold $20,000 above its asking price of $870,000.
