187 Efner St, Buffalo, NY 14201

Welcome to 187 Efner Street, a full-brick duplex on Buffalo's West Side that has been owned and lived in by the same family since it was purchased in 1996. Generations of that family have called both units home, and the pride of ownership is evident throughout this 2,256-square-foot property. 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.
