About This Home

As of July 2026

Tucked within the charming setting of Buffalo’s Johnson Park, this architecturally redesigned 1866 cottage offers a rare blend of historic character and refined, efficient living. Thoughtfully curated with sophistication in mind, the main level features an open, one-room concept anchored by a welcoming living room and cozy library space, all bathed in natural light from an oversized bay window. The streamlined kitchen is both functional and stylish, complete with a Zline range, pantry, and easy access to a convenient half bath and basement. The lower basement level impresses with soaring 12-foot ceilings, presenting exceptional potential for a home gym, additional living space, or creative studio, along with dedicated laundry. Updated mechanics include: Lochnivar boiler (2025), Bradford 50gal HWT (2020), Liberty pump (2021), 2 mini splits for cooling (2020). Just off the kitchen, glass doors lead to a private deck with a sun setter retractable awning (2026)—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The backyard is truly special, offering a quaint and serene escape framed by grapevine-covered walls creating a picturesque, storybook setting. Upstairs, the second level hosts a thoughtfully designed primary suite featuring a charming changing area, work nook, and a beautifully appointed bath with travertine tile, quartz countertops (2026), a soaking tub & shower. Custom arched sash windows, historical replacement with brass sash locks, screens & lower storm inserts. Clever storage solutions throughout enhance the home’s efficient design while maintaining its warm and inviting character. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history reimagined for modern living—this one-of-a-kind cottage is as unique as it is captivating. Showings begin Wednesday 5/6, offers due Tuesday 5/12 at 9AM
