About this House

Solid side by side duplex with many updates within the past 7 years to include: roof, windows, electric, plumbing, front entrance porch, 1 kitchen, 1 bath, 1 hot water tank, sump pump, & some doors. This is an excellent rental area, but would also be a fantastic individual owner opportunity with the option of an in-law set up or short/long term rental. There is a large back room with half bath, gas line for a fireplace and vaulted ceiling. (Ceiling & back wall show damage from before roof was replaced that may limit financing). This room is accessible from the interior by either unit and also has doors leading to the double wide concrete driveway with storage shed; as well as to the mostly fenced, large side lot. The home is currently rented to a long term tenant that utilizes the entire house. An interior wall has been removed upstairs to connect both sides, but can easily be re-drywalled to separate them. Some photos shown are prior to the current tenant. Showing times are limited due to tenant schedule; please be respectful of the times. Appliances included "as is". A 1 year home warranty is included by Seller. Offers will be assessed as they come.
161 Ellen Dr, Buffalo, NY 14225 is a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom, 2,074 sqft multi-family built in 1940. It last sold for the $189,900 asking price on Oct 25, 2024.

    "I have lived at shady acres 10 plus years. It went from a happy fun loving comfortable place to live with hundreds of trees ,great people and respectful neighbors. That all changed once harmony communities bought the place . Once they bought it you are not treated like a tenant you are treated like property, they have made up rules on the fly , purposely fine you without any notification increase rent to the max every year with no justification, try to implement illegal extra charges . The management is a dictatorship along with his boss who will never call you back on a complaint or fix any bad situation. Horrible place to live, Horrible management. "

    "I’ve lived in the neighborhood for 30 years. Even though it has what’s considered a Buffalo zip, it’s actually in the Town of Tonawanda. Good schools, great Town services. The neighborhood is very diverse, I’m white and a lesbian. We have “traditional” white families and also many new homeowners are immigrants from around the world. There’s a new playground in the area also a Boys & Girls Club that is great for after school care. We are within walking distance of the Niagara River with easy access to both the 190 and 290 expressways "
