Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This renovated side-by-side duplex offers two mirror-image units, each featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom. The homes are set up with a dedicated front foyer and a rear entryway for a townhouse-style feel, and the living and dining spaces flow into updated kitchens and bathrooms. Each unit also benefits from its own basement with separate laundry hookups and private storage, along with driveway separation for added independence.
Located at 78 Salisbury Avenue in the Buffalo area (14219), the property is described as being in the Village of Blasdell and within the Frontier Central School District. The listing notes proximity to Lake Erie and Lake Erie area recreation, as well as convenient access to McKinley-area shopping, restaurants, and major commuter routes.
With multiple capital improvements called out—such as a tear-off roof in 2019, energy-efficient vinyl replacement windows in 2019 including glass block basement windows, a tenant-side furnace in 2023, and an owner-side hot water tank in 2025—this duplex is positioned as a ready-to-own option for an owner-occupant, an investor, or anyone seeking multi-generational flexibility. Offers are scheduled for review Tuesday 6/16 at 1:00 PM.
