About This Home

Welcome to this beautifully updated Elma ranch offering turnkey comfort, modern finishes, and an exceptional park-like backyard. The home features a stunning kitchen with rich cherry cabinetry, granite island with prep sink, oven with microwave, Maytag refrigerator, tiled backsplash, wine storage, pendant lighting AND a heated floor for those "special" WNY days—an impressive culinary hub that shows even better in person.

The living spaces are warm and inviting, highlighted by hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and a seamless flow from the front entry to the main living room. The family room stands out with its stone fireplace, working wood-burning stove, and large French Doors overlooking the expansive yard—perfect for cozy nights and Bills games!

The primary bathroom is updated and features a Jacuzzi tub with shower, modern vanity, and contemporary tilework. Bedrooms are clean, bright, and versatile; the third bedroom is currently used as a dining room but can easily convert back.

The newly waterproofed basement offers a large partially finished area with laminate flooring, a gym space (equipment negotiable), an updated half-bath, and a sump pump. Mechanical updates include a 1-year-old Lennox furnace and a 5-year-old hot water tank.

Outside in the backyard, enjoy a large composite deck, shaded seating area, fire pit, and a truly massive yard with mature trees, a storage shed, and room for expansion or recreation. Additional highlights include all-new windows, new gutters, and a 2-car garage and a 2024 new roof! The is also a security system for added piece of mind.

A well-cared-for home with meaningful updates, flexible spaces, and exceptional outdoor living. All services, shopping and highways nearby. 15 minutes to Downtown Bufalo by car—an outstanding opportunity to own in beautiful Elma.
