Welcome to 397 East St, a well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath single-family home located in Buffalo’s Riverside area. This classic old-style Cape offers a functional layout with all three bedrooms conveniently located on the first floor, plus a finished attic that provides valuable additional living space for a home office, recreation room, storage, or other flexible use.
Several major mechanical and utility improvements have already been completed, including a new furnace installed in 2026, updated water lines in 2025, laundry improvements in 2024, and a water heater installed in 2023. The home also features vinyl windows and a private driveway, adding everyday convenience and helping reduce the number of larger projects a new owner may need to address.
Situated in the Riverside Park neighborhood, the property offers convenient access to nearby shopping, schools, places of worship, public transportation, and major Buffalo transportation routes. The surrounding area is considered very walkable, with many everyday errands accessible nearby.
With updated mechanicals, first-floor bedrooms, additional finished attic space, and off-street parking, 397 East St offers a solid opportunity for an owner-occupant or investor looking for a single-family property in Buffalo.
