A Classic Worthy of Its Address
Set on one of Western New York’s most respected streets, 78 Rumsey Road is the rare home that balances architectural gravitas with everyday livability. This is not a trend-chasing property. It’s a residence with roots, rhythm, and restraint. Nearby: the Elmwood Village, the Delaware Park, beautiful and famous Buffalo Architecture including our museums and galleries all within 1 mile.
From the moment you arrive, the home signals permanence—mature landscaping, thoughtful proportions, and a presence that feels settled, confident, and intentional. Inside, light moves easily through well-scaled rooms designed for real life: gracious entertaining, quiet mornings, and evenings that linger.
Original character has been preserved where it matters, while updates have been approached with a steady hand—never loud, never careless. The result is a home that feels curated, not renovated. Comfortable without being casual. Elegant without pretense.
The layout offers flexibility for today’s living while honoring the craftsmanship of an earlier era. Whether hosting a full dining room, gathering by the fire, or finding a quiet corner to retreat, the house adapts without losing itself.
78 Rumsey is for someone who understands that the best homes don’t shout. They endure.
A legacy address. A meaningful home.
