You may have noticed that there are a great deal of renovations in process in the 2200 block of O Street. There are three historic buildings that are all being improved at the same time. This was already a lovely block in Mid Town. When renovations are complete on these three homes, it will be even more desirable.
The property at 1431 22nd Street (on the corner of 22nd and O) has most recently been used as an office building. It looks as though the owners are doing significant work to the property. It is my understanding that it is current owners are renovating it to be their home.
The property at 2215 O Street was most recently used as apartments. It was appearing quite run down and certainly needed the improvements that are under way. It looks as if the building is now benefiting from a new foundation and a major refurbishment. My understanding is that it is being renovated as a single family home. They are spending some money there!
At 2210 O Street, you will find an Italianate Victorian home that was built in 1890. This home has amazing
original
sculpted painted plaster ceilings. I am including some photos here. The ceilings are stunning. the home also features high ceilings and wood floors throughout, bulls eye door and
window casing and covered porches. This home was built as the home of the head engineer for the Buffalo Brewing Company. It is now available on the market for the first time ever. The current owner purchased this home from the family in 2000 and has completed significant improvements including a new foundation, electric panel, updated kitchen with pine flooring, original wainscoting in the kitchen. With the new foundation, came the addition of street level space of 1,400+ square feet with 8'6 ceiling. This space is currently ideal for use as workshop/storage and has rollup door to the back yard. It may be possible to covert this area to additional living space however the City Planning office will make that determination. This property has a 40x160 Lot
with street and alley access.
So there you have it. Work is in progress and this block will soon be even more beautiful than before. If you would like more information on the Italianate Victorian that is for sale now, please contact me or your Realtor.
