The five highest-priced home sales reported in the Buffalo metro area for the week ending October 18, 2026, came to a combined $3.78 million. Every one was a two-story single-family home in Erie County, and the list ran from a 1920 Colonial on a city street to a 2005 patio home in a Williamsville neighborhood.
Williamsville had two of the five, which together sold for $1,363,100. The others were in East Aurora, Buffalo and Orchard Park, and HUNT Real Estate ERA listed two of the homes on the list.
No. 1 — $1,070,707 · 40 W Gate Dr, East Aurora, New York
The top sale of the week was a cedar-sided Colonial at 40 W Gate Dr in East Aurora, which sold for $1,070,707. Built in 1987, it sits on a cul-de-sac on 4.55 wooded acres, the largest lot among the five, yet the village is a short walk away. The home is in the East Aurora School District.
Much of the appeal is outdoors. A private walking trail of about 700 feet loops through the grounds, there is an apple tree, and a large screened porch looks out over a broad, well-kept lawn. The heated saltwater pool has a hot tub, and professional landscaping surrounds the yard.
Inside, the kitchen, breakfast area and dining area have been remodeled with new cabinetry and appliances, and every bathroom has been renovated. The home has four bedrooms and four bathrooms, three full and one half, in 3,660 square feet, with a gas fireplace in the living spaces, hardwood floors and skylights. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and its own bath. The finished basement adds a full bath and storage, and the attached garage fits two and a half cars.
Ellen T Carroll and Tammy L Gormley of Four Season Sothebys International Realty were the listing agents. Jerrold R Thompson II of Century 21 North East represented the buyer.

No. 2 — $728,500 · 387 Woodbridge Ave, Buffalo, New York
The oldest home in this Top 5 is a 1920 Colonial at 387 Woodbridge Avenue in the North Park neighborhood of Buffalo, which sold for $728,500. A columned front porch and a brick-tiled entry with a glass door lead into a foyer laid with new hardwood floors. The home sits close to some of the city’s best parks, restaurants and events.
The living room centers on a wood-burning fireplace with a handsome mantel, and two doors open from it into a den with built-ins that shares the fireplace. Stained-glass windows light the formal dining room. Upstairs, past a landing with leaded glass, are four bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with a window seat. The home has three bathrooms, two full and one half, and 2,855 square feet of living space.
From the kitchen, the view is of a fully fenced backyard with an in-ground pool and established plantings. A detached three-car garage, the largest of the five, sits on the 9,853-square-foot lot. The property last sold for $387,500 in 2018.
The home went under contract 23 days after it was listed. Susan D Lenahan of MJ Peterson Real Estate Inc. was the listing agent, and Emily Cornwell of Howard Hanna WNY Inc. represented the buyer.

No. 3 — $718,100 · 4 Brompton Woods, Williamsville, New York
At 4 Brompton Woods in Williamsville, a 1975 Contemporary custom designed by George Pearlman sold for $718,100. The home is on a private road, ringed by woods, with a pond shared by the neighbors, and it sits on a cul-de-sac. At 4,066 square feet, it has the most living space of the five.
Beamed, vaulted ceilings run across the main floor. A large fireplace with a brick hearth anchors the living room, which opens to a small den beside it and, through a sliding door, onto a 21-by-18-foot deck. The eat-in kitchen was remodeled in 2018 with an oversized island and plenty of cabinets, and its own sliding door leads to a screened sun porch. A slate patio also looks over the back yard.
The primary bedroom is on the first floor, with a walk-in closet and a full bath. There are three more bedrooms, for four in all, and three bathrooms, two full and one half. A large family room, a laundry room and storage space add to the plan, and the attached garage fits two and a half cars. The property last sold for $390,000 in 2018.
The home went under contract 24 days after it was listed. James M Hoffman of HUNT Real Estate ERA was the listing agent, and Sarah O’Boyle of Park Realty of WNY LLC represented the buyer.

The lot covers 0.53 acres with no neighbors behind it.
