If you have been waiting for a truly special property to come along, your search may be over. Tucked into a storybook setting unlike any other, this enchanting home began as a 1940s hunting cabin and has been lovingly transformed into a magical retreat where nature, charm, and comfort exist in perfect harmony.

​

From the lovely circular driveway, cross over picturesque Pound Creek by way of a charming footbridge and arrive at this private oasis where the winding creek becomes the heart of the property, weaving through beautifully curated gardens and peaceful woodland surroundings. Years of devotion to gardening have created a breathtaking landscape with raised beds overflowing with astilbe, day-lilies, hellebores, black-eyed Susans, and hostas, while the surrounding woods burst to life each spring with primrose and trilliums.

​

A covered front porch welcomes you into a light-filled living room where numerous newer windows frame the natural beauty outdoors. Warm parquet flooring and a wood-burning fireplace create an inviting cottage atmosphere, while the open dining area with large bay window flows effortlessly into the kitchen. Pine cabinetry and generous counter space perfectly complement the home’s rustic elegance. A first-floor laundry and hallway lead to a brick-floored screened porch — an idyllic space for summer dinners, morning coffee, or entertaining surrounded by the sounds of the creek and gardens.

​

An open staircase leads to the second floor where an airy balcony serves as both office space and hallway to two bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bath. The primary suite offers direct access to a private balcony overlooking the gardens below, with stairs leading to a flagstone patio complete with electric awning for shaded outdoor enjoyment.

Thoughtful updates and amenities include split air/heat units, baseboard heat, tankless hot water, and a permanent gas generator for peace of mind. A detached two-story, two-car garage and blacktop driveway complete the property.

​

Despite its secluded and peaceful feel, this remarkable home is conveniently located less than 30 minutes from Buffalo Niagara International Airport and downtown Buffalo, and only 10 minutes from the Village of East Aurora. Enjoy the very best of Western New York living with easy access to the region’s picturesque countryside, renowned cultural destinations including the AKG Art Museum and Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, professional sports with the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres, and year-round recreation from Niagara Falls to nearby ski resorts including Kissing Bridge, Buffalo Ski Club, and Holiday Valley.
