About This Home

As of December 2025

Welcome home to 34 Riverside Avenue, where original charm meets an unbeatable waterfront location in the heart of Riverside. This beloved 4 bedroom, 1 bathroom home has been cherished by the same family for over 50 years and is now ready to welcome its next chapter. Situated just around the block from Riverside Park and steps from the Niagara River, this property offers an unparalleled lifestyle with stunning Lake Erie sunset views from the front porch, a rare feature not found in homes in this price range.
Built in 1910, this 1,248 square foot two-story home showcases quality craftsmanship with solid bones perfect for today's buyer. The property features a newer tear-off roof, low-maintenance vinyl siding, Trek porch and steps approximately 10 years old, and a blacktop driveway with concrete apron. The 30' x 110' lot includes an additional storage shed in the fully fenced backyard. Inside, you'll find 4 bedrooms ideal for growing families, original hardwood floors, tall ceilings on the first floor creating an open and airy feel, and an original wood banister showcasing historic craftsmanship. The large kitchen includes a pantry off to the side, and the home features a functional floor plan with an enclosed back staircase to the full cinderblock and concrete basement. This lovingly maintained home offers excellent bones for buyers looking to add their personal touch. With cosmetically updated homes in this size and location selling between $240,000-$270,000, this represents an outstanding opportunity to build equity while creating your dream home in one of Buffalo's most affordable neighborhoods. Enjoy the lifestyle benefits of walking to Riverside Park for recreation and community events, strolling to the Niagara River, and experiencing true front porch living with actual water views in an established neighborhood with strong community ties. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Riverside history in a location that truly can't be beaten. Join us for an open house on Saturday, October 11th from 1:00-3:00 PM and Sunday, October 12th from 11:00 AM-1:00 PM to see all this home has to offer. All offers are due by Thursday, October 16th at 5:00 PM.
