Check out the oldest home in Western New York. It is the only one that was built before 1800.

The basement really takes me back to my childhood, how about you? It is old school, but it adds a hint of nostalgia that other homes may not reflect nowadays.

In fact, you may have noticed that many homes no longer have a basement. It seems to have fallen off in popularity. According to NAHB analysis of data from the U.S. Census Bureau's Survey of Construction, "fewer than a quarter (24.3 percent) of single-family homes built in 2018 have basements." It has been continuing to decline over the last 20 years, and it seems to continue on that trend.

If you like the vintage feel of a home and underground storage space, an older home may be more of a fit for you!
