About This Home

As of September 2025

This charming two-story home in West Seneca offers a smart layout, modern updates, and a backyard that’s ready for summer. With 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath, it’s cozy without compromising comfort. The bathroom features both a working whirlpool tub and a stand-up shower, and the kitchen includes a center island that stays with the home. Step through the sliding glass doors in the dining room to your private outdoor retreat—complete with a wood-and-Trex deck, a fully fenced yard, an above-ground pool with updated equipment (new filter in 2023 and a rebuilt motor in 2024), plus a patio and pergola for shaded lounging. The awning, string lights, and curtains all stay, so you can enjoy the space from day one. Inside, vaulted ceilings on the second floor add an open feel, while the bay window in the living room brings in natural light. The second bedroom includes two closets, perfect for extra storage. Central air and a brand new 2024 hot water tank provide year-round comfort. Located in the West Seneca School District and just minutes from the 400, this home blends convenience with cozy, low-maintenance living. The sellers’ favorite part? Enjoying morning coffee in the peaceful backyard. Come see for yourself! Offers will be reviewed after 5pm on Tuesday 7/29.
