A respite from the city along Main Street and Niagara Falls Boulevard

Unrelated to Shakespeare, the hamlet of Eggertsville sits within the town of Amherst, bordered on the north by both Tonawanda and Niagara County. Ellicott Creek flows right through the town, and small, family-owned restaurants speckle Main Street and Niagara Falls Boulevard. Plus, locals love the convenience of close cities and other attractions. “It’s a small area compared to Buffalo, which is 5 to 10 minutes away,” says Maureen Flavin, a Realtor with Howard Hanna Brokerage, who has 32 years of experience in Buffalo. “You’re 70 minutes from ski country in Ellicottville, nicknamed The Aspen of the North.”

A range of prices and a good selection of Eggertsville homes

A variety of homes are along double sidewalks and cul-de-sacs adorned with basketball hoops and hopscotch chalk drawings. “There are a lot of charming, brick Tudors,” Flavin says. Cape Cods and a few four squares stand out with balconies and inviting front porches. Home prices vary by square footage. “The market in Buffalo is very strong,” Flavin says. “There’s not much competition, and prices are solid compared to homes towards the east. You have a good chance at a nice property here without much hassle.” Properties under 2,000 square feet and farther from Amherst sell for $100,000 to $120,000. For properties over 2,000 square feet, there’s a big gap. Homebuyers can expect prices between $200,000 and $400,000, apart from a few homes selling close to $700,000, offering four to five bedrooms and 4,000 square feet.

The mall consists of department stores like Macy’s and DICK’s Sporting Goods. Wegmans, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods Market, ALDI and Tops Friendly Markets surround the mall on Niagara Falls Boulevard, as well as Target and Walmart.

Events galore, between the Arts and Italian Heritage Festivals

On the weekends, Glen Park hosts an art festival in celebration of its local artists. For a larger festival, the Annual Italian Heritage Festival is in Kenmore, 4 miles away, and Taste of Buffalo is downtown, 8 miles away via NY-33 West.

Take to the stage in Sweet Home Central School District

The Sweet Home Central School District and Amherst Central School District have award-winning music and theater programs alongside high Niche ratings. “There are wonderful schools in Eggertsville, just wonderful,” Flavin says. “Some of the best in Buffalo. Many people move here for the schools.” Eggertsville’s youngest students may attend Windemere Boulevard Elementary School and Sweet Home Middle School, with B and B-minus Niche scores, respectively. Sweet Home Senior High School’s athletic program offers over 80 Teams. Alongside its impressive A-minus rating by Niche, Sweet Home is ranked in the top 10 Best Public High Schools in Buffalo.

Home is within 3 miles from Glen Falls and Amherst State Park

Along with fishing on Ellicott Creek, there are beautiful green spaces in and around Eggertsville. Dellwood Park is the most popular choice, less than a mile away on Westfield Road. Next door, Garnett Playground features an immersive playspace, concessions stand and baseball field. Six miles away is Buffalo’s famous Delaware Park, home to The Buffalo Zoo. When locals don’t want to drive to Niagara Falls, Glen Falls is the perfect substitute 3 miles away and Amherst State Park is a minute's drive from the falls. In the summer, kids keep cool at Clearfield Community Park’s pool and splash pad in Amherst. Year-round indoor ice skating is available through the Northtown Center at Amherst and hosts beginner classes.

Be in Canada within 30 minutes

“It’s very walkable and highly desirable, but there are other ways to get around, too,” Flavin says. The NFTA Metro Bus System is also reliable most days. Locals can take Interstate 290 to Niagara Falls, and Buffalo Niagara International Airport is 6 miles away for longer getaways. “You couldn’t live in a friendlier city than Buffalo. Everything is a hop, skip and jump, plus there’s no traffic issues like in other cities,” Flavin says proudly. “Niagara Falls is 20 minutes away. You can literally be in a different country in less than half an hour. You can’t beat that.”

Route 5 in Eggertsville is the bustling artery that connects the neighborhood.
