Property Description
The home offers two stories plus a full basement and a full walk-up attic with pull-down stairs. The basement provides additional storage, though ceiling height is limited. Each unit features 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, and both units include in-unit laundry. Utilities are separately metered with 2 electric meters and 2 gas meters (1 shared water meter). Electrical service and circuit breaker panels for both units were fully updated approximately 3 years ago. Waste lines are a mix of steel and PVC with prior upgrades, and supply lines are a mix of steel and PEX. Lot dimensions are 28.75' x 90' (0.0594 acres).
Location is a standout feature of this property: this pocket of the West Side sits between Porter Avenue, Niagara Street, and downtown Buffalo, directly benefiting from the $150 million Ralph Wilson Park renovation, including a brand-new pedestrian bridge connecting this neighborhood straight into the park. Front Park is also nearby, offering river views, soccer fields, tennis courts, a running track, and some of the best sunset views over the Niagara River anywhere in the city, along with a scenic riverside bike path.
Recent comparable duplex sales within this specific West Side pocket highlight the value here: over the past approximately 500 days, duplex closings in this exact micro-market have ranged from roughly $99,000 to $162,000, several with less square footage, fewer original features, or fewer bedrooms per unit than 187 Efner offers.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-maintained, owner-occupied duplex with room for improvement in a rapidly appreciating pocket of Buffalo's West Side, whether you're an owner-occupant, house-hacker, or investor. Priced to move, open house is scheduled for Sunday, 9/6/2026 from 12:00pm-2:00pm with an offer deadline of Tuesday, September 15th at 5:00 PM.
