7th Annual Ultimate House Announced

Each year, Pittsburgh Magazine’s Ultimate House celebrates the “ultimate” in residential living in Pittsburgh at a particular point in time, educating the public about the latest innovations and state-of-the-art features and then opening the selected home to public tours over a 10-day period – with all ticket proceeds going to The Free Care Fund at UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh.

Since its inception in 2015, Pittsburgh Magazine’s Ultimate House projects have raised more than $370,000 for the Free Care Fund.

The 7th annual Ultimate House, presented by Duquesne Light Co., is under construction by Madia Homes. The home will be the first home constructed in Four Seasons, a new Hampton Township community. The Four Seasons site officially broke ground in the summer of 2024, and construction of the Ultimate House began in March 2025. Public tours are scheduled for March 2026. The home will comprise 6,000 square feet of living space on three levels, ample outdoor entertaining space, a remarkable state-of-the-art kitchen with a 12-foot island, and much more.

Throughout this year and next, Pittsburgh Magazine and its Ultimate House sponsors will share construction updates on the home, offer education and inspiration on a wide range of relevant topics to Pittsburghers looking buy or update a home. Along the way, anticipation will build for the unveiling of Pittsburgh’s Ultimate House. Public tours will feature experts stationed throughout the house, offering advice and information on the latest innovations in homebuilding.
