About This Home
Welcome to 28 Orton Place! Nestled in the heart of Buffalo’s iconic Allentown neighborhood, this home is a stunning example of historic charm expertly blended with modern updates. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Victorian stands proudly among colorful, character-rich homes, offering the opportunity to live in one of the city’s most walkable and culturally vibrant districts—just steps from wonderful restaurants, galleries, and Kleinhans Music Hall. This home has outstanding curb appeal and features a turreted facade and a wide front porch perfect for morning coffee or evening wine and a long driveway that can fit 3 or 4 cars. Inside, original woodwork, leaded and stained-glass windows, and exquisite millwork showcase the home’s timeless elegance. The formal dining room features two-toned hardwood floors, classic tin ceilings, and a charming butler’s pantry. Just around the corner, you'll find a built-in wet bar- ideal for entertaining and evening cocktails. The cozy library features a new gas fireplace (2020) and floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves, perfect for curling up with a book. The fully renovated kitchen (2018) is a showstopper. Custom designed by Artisan Kitchen & Bath with Kemper cabinetry, Cambria quartz countertops, a Blanco sink, and Delta fixtures—all artfully integrated into the home’s classic aesthetic. The new kitchen layout includes a huge island with breakfast bar seating, an electric fireplace and a built-in A/C unit. Recent upstairs renovations (2023) transformed the layout to include a fully updated guest bath, convenient second-floor laundry, and a reimagined third bedroom. The spacious primary suite includes an en suite bathroom with soaking tub (2023), and two large closets. Additional highlights include a new furnace (2021), exterior paint and woodwork restoration (2021), full chimney repoint (2023), partial roof replacement with architectural shingles and copper accents (2016), and a 150-amp electric service upgrade (2025). Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard oasis with manicured landscaping and a deck with pergola. This beautiful home shows A+
