No Matter The Season, This Buffalo Home Oozes Summer And Sunshine All Day Every Day

Summer, sunshine, big blue skies — we have entered my favorite time of year. Yes, yes, I know that come mid-August I will be camping out in the dairy section of my local Sam’s Club trying to fight off the latest hot flash while it is 110 degrees outside. As crazy as it sounds, I very much prefer summer over winter.

I do not know how people who live in the Northeast handle the winters. Aside from the cold, the days are, for lack of a better description, gray. Winter just seems to last forever. There is little doubt that I would lose my nut if I lived in that part of the country. 

Unless that is, I lived in the house featured in this week’s column. It is summer and sunshine 24/7/365 baby! 

Yeah baby, that is what I am talking about right there.

I love this picture. One of these homes is not like the others. This absolutely charming two-bedroom, one-bath home is located at 54 Clifford Street, Buffalo, New York. The home is a little more than 1,600 square feet. The owners are asking $195,900. 

One thing I want to make sure you fine people caught is that this home is in Buffalo. Buffalo!!! They have some of the worst winters around. Even their summers have a tint of gray. This home is a beacon of summer and sunshine. I digress.

I give you the entry and living room. Summer and sunshine all year long.

Aside from the metallic mannequin, the dining room is just as fun as the living room and the light fixture looks like the spaceship baby Superman traveled in to reach Earth when Krypton was destroyed.

Mmm, mmm, mmm. I do love me some Christopher Reeve. He is my little ray of summer and sunshine.

The kitchen continues the summer and sunshine motif.

The floor may be a little much, I know. But when you live in a town that is ranked the 10th coldest in the country and receives more than 95 inches of snow a year, I think this flooring choice is more than acceptable. The description I read of Buffalo said that when it is not snowing it is raining and gray. They actually used the word “gray.”

Okay, the bedroom is weird. Those beds can fit a ton of people and then you have the sofa bed type thing to boot. I get it, it is cold and you will stay warmer if everyone is together but that is just weird. Just thinking about having enough people in that house to fill those beds makes me have a hot flash. That reminds me, I need to go make my list for Sam’s Club.
