Modern Luxury on Historic Ground
Hartman Farms represents the ideal blend of Franklin Park heritage and modern residential design. Developed on the site of the historic Hartman family farm along Reis Run Road, this community by Heartland Homes (and Laurel Development) offers the newest generation of luxury living in the North Allegheny School District.
Unlike older housing stock in the area that often requires significant renovation, Hartman Farms consists of newer construction detached homes. These residences feature the open floor plans, mudrooms, and entertaining spaces that modern buyers demand, all set against the rolling topography that once defined the local agricultural landscape.
The Homes: Heartland Luxury
The real estate here is defined by "usable luxury." As a sold-out community that has transitioned out of new construction, the resale market is highly competitive. Buyers specifically watch for popular Heartland floor plans like the Olsen and Oberlin Terrace.
- The Aesthetic: Craftsman and Traditional elevations with stone accents and hardie-plank siding.
- The Layouts: 3-4+ bedrooms, finished basements, and morning rooms are standard.
- The Value: You get the "new construction feel" without the wait time or the construction dust.
Lifestyle & Location
Living on Reis Run Road offers a strategic advantage. You are minutes from the I-79 and I-279 split, making the commute into Pittsburgh or north to Cranberry seamless.
Local Highlight: Our Neighborhood Farmstead
The community's roots are still alive. In 2023, Our Neighborhood Farmstead opened at the original market location right nearby. It serves as a year-round anchor for residents, offering fresh produce, artisan goods, and seasonal displays (like pumpkins and flowers) that keep the "Farm" spirit alive in Hartman Farms.
