Located in the heart of North Buffalo’s popular Hertel Avenue entertainment district, this classic 3/3 double offers both character and opportunity. The exterior features maintenance-free siding, a brick front, a concrete driveway, an additional parking pad, and a two-car garage. The welcoming entry is defined by its elegant door, framed with side lights and a transom window that invites natural light inside. The lower unit features hardwood floors throughout the living room, den, dining room, and three bedrooms. The living room is enhanced by built-in bookshelves and leaded glass windows, flowing seamlessly into the den. The kitchen features an abundance of cabinetry and counter space, along with tile flooring and a tile backsplash. The upper unit offers a living room, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms, and a full bath, with a private balcony adding to its charm. Hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas and bedrooms. Both units also enjoy newly built back porches, ideal for relaxing ('24). Additional highlights include a full walk-up attic, divided basement storage, glass block windows, updated electrical panels, separate utilities, and luxury vinyl plank in the staircase ('24). With solid bones, timeless details, and a prime location near Hertel Avenue’s shops and restaurants, as well as Delaware Park and the Buffalo Zoo, this home is perfect for an owner-occupant or an investor looking to build equity.
