Historic arts-and-crafts village southeast of Buffalo with wooded acreage, the Roycroft Campus, and some of the metro's highest household incomes on quiet, low-traffic lots.
Anchored to LECOM Harborcenter on Buffalo's downtown waterfront, this guide radiates outward to the upscale Northtowns and the walkable waterfront core a Sabres player can reach in under 20 minutes. Privacy-first picks lean toward East Aurora estates and concierge downtown towers, with discreet dining, cryo recovery, and family resources mapped to the practice rink. The facility shares its tower with the Buffalo Marriott and sits steps from KeyBank Center, so on-ice work and game nights are a short walk apart.
