Welcome to 140 Shepard Avenue, a spacious and thoughtfully updated upper/lower duplex ideally located in the heart of the Village of Kenmore within the Ken-Ton School District. Meticulously maintained over many years and offering wonderful curb appeal, this versatile two-family home is an excellent opportunity to owner-occupy while rental income helps offset ownership costs or to add a well-located Kenmore duplex to an investment portfolio. Each apartment offers 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath, along with generously sized formal living and dining rooms. The lower unit features a built-in dishwasher. Both units feature fresh paint, newer resilient vinyl flooring in select areas, and numerous vinyl replacement windows. The upper apartment also features a private porch. The lower unit includes a beautifully renovated full bath with impressive tilework throughout the shower, walls and floor, complemented by a newer granite-topped vanity. Upstairs, the full bath retains classic original tilework and a traditional tub, preserving the home's period character. The full basement provides partially finished bonus space, laundry and storage areas, glass block windows, updated circuit breaker panels, replacement plumbing and copper water lines. Outside, low-maintenance vinyl siding and an architectural shingle roof complement a large off-street parking area and storage shed. Close to parks, shops, restaurants, Delaware Avenue, North Buffalo and all the conveniences of the Village of Kenmore, 140 Shepard combines character, practical updates, spacious apartments and two-family versatility in an exceptional location.
