Listing Description

South Buffalo Gem Right Off McKinley - Renovated Inside and Out Tucked just off iconic McKinley Parkway, 198 Downing Avenue delivers the South Buffalo character buyers are searching for - backed by a renovation list that spans six straight years of smart, consistent investment.

At 1,462 sq ft, this 3 bedroom, 1 bath home has been updated from the roof down. A metal roof was installed in 2024, the kitchen and dining room were fully remodeled in 2021 and received a brand new floor in 2026, the bathroom was redone in 2021, and fresh carpet was laid in 2023.

Outside, a concrete driveway (2020), covered concrete patio (2022), patio roof (2025), patio stairs (2023), back fence (2023), and a gated driveway (2024) round out a backyard built for entertaining and privacy. The fully fenced yard, 1-car garage, and covered patio make outdoor living as turnkey as the interior. This is a home where the work has been done - and done right. Central South Buffalo location, steps from McKinley Pkwy. Homes like this don't last.
