526 Central Ave – where history, heart, and home come together!
This iconic 1902 Craftsman has been lovingly maintained by the same family for generations, and now it’s ready to welcome its next chapter. If you’ve been waiting for your chance to own a piece of local history on one of Dunkirk’s most admired row of homes, this is it!
Step inside and fall in love with the classic elegance paired perfectly with warm, inviting craftsmanship. With original woodwork and tall ceilings, this home is a rare find! The custom cherry wood and granite kitchen is complete with an island and open dining space that’s ideal for hosting and entertaining. The spacious light-filled living room has original glass-paned French doors and a fireplace feature. The study off the foyer also features original glass-paned French doors.
Upstairs, a spacious landing connects four sizable bedrooms—each with its own charm, including bay windows, a walk-in closet, and a lovely fireplace feature. The newly remodeled full bath offers a deep soaking alcove tub and timeless finishes.
At the front of the house you’ll find a large covered brick porch tucked behind lush landscaping that provides plenty of privacy from the main road. At the back of the house, you’ll find a sunny bonus room with sliding doors that open to a multi-level outdoor living space: an elevated deck, a large patio, and a backyard that flows seamlessly into a wide driveway with tons of parking and room for outdoor activities.
Need more space? The full basement offers loads of storage and a newly finished bonus room. The walk-up craftsman attic adds even more storage potential- or a creative project waiting to happen!
All of this just five blocks from Lake Erie and the Dunkirk Marina & Pier. Come see what makes this historic gem truly special!
