Noted architect and curator A. James Speyer (1913-1986) was born in the Woodland Road district of Pittsburgh, which contains not only 19th-century gems but some of the city’s most exemplary modern houses. Among them is the Apt House, commissioned by Jerome Apt Jr. and Joan Frank Apt in 1951 and completed in 1953. After graduating from Carnegie Tech in 1934, where the Beaux Arts tradition was still the norm, Speyer traveled to Europe, encountering the Bauhaus movement and avantgarde architecture. Graduate studies in Chicago with Mies van der Rohe led further to the development of Speyer’s modern aesthetic. An echo of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater can be noted in the design elements and materials found in this masterwork, along with arches that could be a nod to H. H. Richardson’s Allegheny County Courthouse. The inspired design of this notable residence makes perfect use of its lovely, wooded setting. Approximately 1.5 acres with tennis court.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
