Also known as the Calvary Church Rectory, the Sellers House is a wonderfully preserved Italianate/Second Empire villa located on a large lot in the Shadyside neighborhood of Pittsburgh.
When the house was built by Priscilla and Francis Sellers in 1858, Shadyside's clean air and distance from the dirty, disease-ridden city attracted the wealthy, who erected large houses like the Sellers House.
The coming of the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1860, which offered those who worked in the city an easy commute, sparked an even larger building boom.
In 1947, the family of the last resident donated the house to nearby Calvary Episcopal Church, which used it as a school and meeting place before transforming it into the rectory. I'm not certain if it still serves that purpose, however.
The Sellers House was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

Update: After further research, I found out the church sold the house and it’s back in private hands.
