This French Provincial home was built in 1929 and designed by E.B. Green, one of the Buffalo area's most prolific and respected architects of the day. He incorporated many luxurious features, such as barrel-vaulted ceilings, Italian marble floors and stone fireplaces.

A true "mansion" of nearly 9,000 square feet, it boasts 22 rooms, a separate servants' wing and a 1,000- square-foot chauffeur's apartment over the three-car garage. There are nearly three acres of grounds featuring a tennis court, swimming pool and patios.

Listing agent, Jim Lovallo, once lived in the house as a child when his grandmother owned it. It has passed through his family's hands since, but he said that almost all the original elements survive. In 2009, it was used as a decorators' showcase house. Since then, it has sustained some water damage on ceilings and walls but is mostly still in well-preserved condition.
