$15 million dollar Market House Condos sells 27 of its 54 units

Located at 5570 Centre Avenue in Shadyside, the new Market House Condominiums have sold 27 of its 54 units. TK Architects of Kansas City and Mascaro Construction of Pittsburgh created the 80,00 square-foot building.

The only residential property of its kind in Pittsburgh, the condos are uniquely situated above a Giant Eagle. The grocer, currently under renovation, reopens in June. The full-service metropolitan market will include a dry cleaner, bank, pharmacy, and photo lab.
 
Condos include one bedroom/one bathroom 850-1800 square feet units, and two bedroom/two bathroom 1200, 1600 or 1800 square feet units. Local furniture company Perlora designed the units, while Kolano Design created the common space.

“The space is very clean and bright. Every unit has incredible views. The architecture has longevity,” remarks Bill Krahe, managing partner with Echo Real Estate Services Company.

Amenities include a fitness center, library and guest suite. The building’s brick, metal and glass structure is integrated within environmentally friendly and energy efficient elements including a rooftop garden, wind power and skylights.

Tenants enjoy close proximity to restaurants, galleries and boutiques and can purchase indoor or outdoor parking space. "We have a broad range of tenants, from younger to older, single to married, professionals, doctors and graduate students and some new to Pittsburgh,” notes Krahe.

An open house featuring tours of Market House model units takes place on Thursday, June 1, 4:30 -7:30 p.m.
