Value Range Pricing-Owner will consider all offers between $255,000–$315,000 or more on this bright, fully updated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home in one of South Buffalo's most sought-after neighborhoods. Close to all the amenities you could want, this is a home where everyday errands feel effortless and weekends feel like a getaway. Step inside and you'll notice the light right away. The home is bright, clean, and welcoming, and engineered hardwood floors run through the space for a warm, timeless feel that require no refinishing. The large living room opens into a morning room that can easily be set up as an additional sitting area for reading or quiet mornings. The dining room connects to a versatile additional room that works as a den, a home office, a reading retreat, or even a large back mudroom or first-floor laundry. It's the kind of flexible space that adapts as your needs change. The kitchen was updated in 2020 and is designed for real life, with hard surface countertops, a subway tile backsplash, a gas stove, and plenty of storage. Whether you're preparing a weeknight dinner or hosting friends, it makes cooking a pleasure. A convenient updated full bath rounds out the main level. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms and an updated half bathroom. Hardwood floors can be found under the carpeting. The large garage has potential to serve as additional living space, and the full basement is large and dry, ideal for storage. Outside, the well-manicured, fully fenced backyard, enclosed with vinyl fencing, is a true paradise for relaxing or entertaining. The Trex deck (2022) is the perfect place to enjoy the outdoor season without the maintenance. Recent updates provide peace of mind, including a roof (2019), A/C (2020), a hot water tank (2025), and a sump pump (2021). Offers are due Thursday, October 29 at 10:00 AM, and this one won't last!
