American Foursquares and bungalows line the narrow streets
Kenfield's narrow, gridded streets primarily feature older American Foursquares and bungalow-style homes constructed in the early 20th century, though apartments and townhouses are also common. Smaller dwellings containing 1,000 square feet often price between $75,000 and $150,000 while larger homes with several bedrooms typically top out around $200,000. Homes in Kenfield usually spend three to four weeks on the market before being sold. "Years ago, before the medical campus was there, homes would be worth anywhere between $20,000 and $60,000. People were going there, acquiring properties, flipping and holding, and when the market was phenomenal, there were people purchasing homes just under $200,000," Smith says. "Historically, that side of Buffalo has not gone through that."
