Built in 1912, this two-story brick residence in Salamanca, New York, offers four bedrooms, traditional proportions, and the kind of natural woodwork that gives older interiors their warmth and individuality.

151 Lincoln Ave, Salamanca, NY 14779 | Offered at $84,900

The covered front porch provides a welcoming introduction, while the high ceilings and formal dining room reflect an era when everyday spaces were often designed with a sense of occasion. Inside, the wood trim and hardwood flooring offer a foundation for restoration without erasing the house’s historic personality.

The kitchen and living areas provide practical space for daily life, while the four-bedroom layout offers flexibility for family, guests, or a home office. Upstairs, one bedroom still needs drywall installed, presenting a project for a buyer who wants to finish the space to their own preferences.

A full attic offers additional storage or potential for future use, and the closed-off second-story rear balcony may offer another opportunity to reclaim a feature of the home, subject to its condition and applicable requirements.

Outside, the large backyard and additional storage shed provide room for gardening and outdoor projects, while the detached two-car garage or barn stands out with its high ceilings, electric service, and sliding barn doors. Updated windows and a Rheem hot-water tank installed in 2020 provide useful improvements alongside the home’s older character.

Offered at $84,900, this brick Colonial is an appealing prospect for an old-house enthusiast who sees the value in original woodwork, traditional architecture, and the chance to complete a historic home’s next chapter.
