501 West Avenue

There's renovated, and then there's 501 West Avenue. This isn't a property where the seller swapped out a few fixtures and called it a day. This is a ground-up, permit-pulled, architect-approved, city-inspected transformation of a classic Buffalo double — and the result is something the West Side hasn't seen in a long time. Start with the systems. Both units received brand new high-efficiency forced air furnaces, gas hot water tanks, and a fully rebuilt electrical system in 2026 — every wire, switch, outlet, and fixture. All new copper and PEX supply lines, all new PVC drain lines, all new gas pipe with meters relocated outside. Everything is new in the most literal sense. Underneath all that infrastructure, the original character was preserved. The foyer showcases original wood floors and a fully restored staircase — railings, spindles, and all. The lower unit retains original hardwood floors in the living room, dining room, and bedrooms. Both kitchens are completely renovated with stone countertops, undermount sinks, pantry cabinet walls, and built-in refrigerators. The lower unit includes new stainless high-end appliances. Both bathrooms fully renovated — lower features tile floors, walk-in shower, and ceramic tile tub surround. New vinyl windows, new interior and exterior doors, new floors throughout, and rebuilt front porches with architect plans and permits. Roof is a full tear-off less than one year old. New vinyl siding and aluminum wrapping on the exterior less than six months old. Two vacant 3BR/1BA units. 35x149 deep city lot. Full basement. Walk-up attic. Separate gas and electric meters. 100% permitted and approved by the City of Buffalo. Offers will be reviewed May 14th, at 5:00pm.
