140-Year-Old Home for Sale for $1.2 Million in Western New York

There's a lot of history in the Buffalo region. You may know that back in the 1800's and into the early 1900's, Buffalo was a booming city, with plenty of prosperous suburbs within an hour.

That all changed by the 1960's and 1970's, and Buffalo soon became known as a rustbelt city who had glory days behind it. Thankfully, Buffalo has been back on the rise over the last decade but what's cool is in the city and all through the Western New York region, that rich history still remains.

There are quite a few historic homes scattered all through Western New York and one of the most famous east of the city is for sale as of this month.
