Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Stephen P Wald Real Estate Associates Inc.
A one-family house on two stories, 192A Buffalo Avenue dates to 1899 and has 1,440 square feet. I think the year tells you less than the condition and the layout, and those are what you'll want to look at closely in a house like this.
The house is set up as a place to renovate, restore or personalize, and it suits a buyer who already has a plan for the rooms. Pets are allowed, which matters if you have one.
Three bedrooms and two bathrooms are the first things to plan around when you think about how the house would work for you. Crown Hts-Utica Av, served by the 3 and 4, is about 12 minutes on foot, and Woods Playground is about 5 minutes away.
