    Welcome to 230 Potomac Avenue, a beautifully maintained West Side Buffalo home blending original character with thoughtful modern updates. Located on a neighborhood street, this inviting property offers a covered front porch, covered rear porch, concrete patio added in 2023, fenced-in yard, and a convenient off-street parking pad completed in 2023. Step through the original wood front door into a welcoming foyer featuring a grand staircase and French doors leading to the spacious family room and living room. The large formal dining room showcases beautiful built-in cabinetry, while the first floor also offers a full bathroom and an updated kitchen featuring granite countertops and an undermount sink. Kitchen appliances are included, including a refrigerator (2024), stove (2019), dishwasher (2020), and microwave (2023). The second floor offers excellent flexibility with four bedrooms, although one has been converted into a convenient second-floor laundry room with a Maytag commercial-grade washer and dryer included. Another bedroom has been transformed into a spacious custom walk-in closet, with the design completed by Creative Storage in 2019. The remaining bedrooms include a generous primary bedroom and additional bedroom, along with a full bathroom. The finished third floor provides even more living space with three finished rooms and two additional storage areas. Updated carpet and padding were installed in 2023 by Carpet Collection, and a wall-mounted furnace installed by Zenner & Ritter in 2023 provides heating and air conditioning to the space. Numerous major updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof, windows, furnace, PVC drain lines, copper water lines, kitchen, and second-floor bathroom, all completed in 2018. Central AC and a new electrical panel were added in 2021. A security system is also included. With its classic Buffalo character, spacious layout, flexible living areas, fenced yard, off-street parking, and extensive list of updates, 230 Potomac Avenue offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy all that Buffalo's West Side has to offer. Offers will be reviewed as they are received. Owner reserve the right to set a deadline.
