Real Estate for $360,000 - NYTimes.com Phillippe Diederich for The New York Times A five-bedroom craftsman in Bradenton, Fla., is on the market for $359,000. The living room has a decorative fireplace, a coffered ceiling and beveled windows. WHAT: A brick town house with three bedrooms and two and a half baths SIZE: 2,300 square feet SETTING: This house is in Manchester, a historic district of Victorian-era row houses and single-family houses just across the Allegheny River from downtown Pittsburgh. The neighborhood was originally part of Allegheny, a city later annexed by Pittsburgh and home to many steel barons. Several of their mansions still remain. During the mid-20th century migration to the suburbs, many of Manchester's estates were divided into apartments or fell into disrepair. A push by Manchester residents in the 1970s to revitalize the neighborhood led to its designation as a city historic district. Manchester is within a couple of miles of several major landmarks and attractions, including stadiums for both the Pirates and the Steelers, the Andy Warhol Museum, the city aviary and the Carnegie Science Center. Downtown Pittsburgh is about two miles away, across the Allegheny River. A few different bridges cross the river, available for cars, pedestrians and bicycles. INSIDE: This Second Empire row house was built in 1876 and completely renovated about eight years ago. The current owners collaborated with architectural salvage groups, antiques dealers and carpenters to fit out the house with period light fixtures, beveled-glass transoms and other details, while retaining the original hardwood floors on the first and second levels. The front door opens onto a foyer; through new French doors to the right of the foyer is a living room with a gas-log fireplace and an antique marble mantel. Off the living room is the formal dining room, which also has a gas-log fireplace with an antique slate mantel. The renovated kitchen has stainless-steel appliances, including a four-burner Thermador range fitted into an exposed brick wall. An original walnut staircase leads to the second floor. The master bedroom, which overlooks the garden, is here. Its en-suite bathroom has a claw-foot tub and a pedestal sink. The other second-floor bedroom, with a wood-burning fireplace with a marble mantel, functions as a family room. Another bedroom is on the third floor in what was formerly the attic. OUTDOOR SPACE: The house is on three-quarters of an acre, and shares a large garden with its next-door neighbor. The garden, which has a wisteria arbor and flagstone sitting area, has been featured on a garden tour. TAXES: $2,219 (approximately) CONTACT: Mario F. Costanzo, Howard Hanna, (412) 901-1725; howardhanna.com WHAT: A five-bedroom craftsman with three and a half baths SIZE: 3,760 square feet SETTING: Bradenton is a coastal city of about 50,000 people in central-west Florida. This 1914 house is on a palm-lined street a block inland from the Manatee River in Wares Creek, a historic neighborhood of bungalows, Spanish colonials and other types of houses dating to the early 20th century. In the late 1990s, a neighborhood association helped restore single-family zoning in the area, halting the conversion of houses into apartments, the listing agent said. Downtown Bradenton, which is adjacent to Wares Creek, is the city's central business and municipal district. The area's commercial corridor, Manatee Avenue, is about a block north of this house. INSIDE: This neoclassical-style craftsman was last renovated around a decade ago, when its current owners bought it. There's a large screened-in wraparound front porch with Saltillo tile floors laid down by the current owners. Inside, original distinguishing details include narrow-plank oak floors and beveled, leaded and stained-glass windows on the first floor. Through the front door, there's a living room with a decorative fireplace, a coffered ceiling and beveled windows. The formal dining room also has a coffered ceiling. The current owners updated the kitchen with wood cabinets and a natural-gas stove. A family room is at the back of the house on the first floor, also accessible from the wraparound porch. One of the room's walls is rounded and paneled with leaded and stained-glass windows. The room also features a decorative white-brick fireplace.
