Property Description

Attention First time home buyers and savvy investors... Here is your opportunity for a perfectly positioned home for a high-margin fix-and-flip or a buy-and-hold strategy in the resilient South Buffalo market. Boasting a highly sought-after 1950s build with a poured foundation, this single-family residence offers the "solid bones" investors or first time home owners look for including vinyl siding and a reliable forced-air furnace with central AC. The interior serves as a complete blank canvas giving you the freedom to realize your vision. With 3 bedrooms, including a versatile first-floor bedroom or home office, and a kitchen layout featuring a breakfast bar footprint, the potential for a modern open-concept redesign is immense. New hot water tank (2025) and new front bay window (2023). Strategically located in the 14220 zip code near Hopkins Street, this home is situated in a high-demand area where after-repair value (ARV) is supported by strong recent comps. The exterior features a fully fenced yard and a large storage shed, adding significant value for future homeowners or tenants. For the savvy house flipper, this is an ideal value-add project with equity-building potential in a neighborhood known for its steady appreciation and proximity to South Park and public transit. This handyman special is priced to sell and ready for a contractor’s vision to transform it into the neighborhood's next standout home.
