The Buffalo Bills will be moving into their newly built Highmark Stadium 2.0 for the 2026 season—and now one lucky fan is being given the opportunity to get a front-row seat to the action, without even buying a single ticket to a game.
That “once-in-a-generation opportunity” is found in a new listing for the “Bills Mafia House,” an iconic dwelling that is located mere feet from the site of the Bills’ new stadium, as well as their old home, which sits just across the street.
The two-bedroom investment property is sited in Orchard Park on the “closest residential street” to the gates of the brand-new Highmark Stadium, which is slated to open its doors to fans—and players—in the summer.
While the home boasts just 1,062 square feet of space, its “unbeatable location” at “ground zero” for tailgating makes it a potential gold mine, warranting the $659 per square foot asking price.
“The location is what makes this property so special,” said listing agent Katelyn LaRusch of Keller Williams Realty Lancaster. “It sits on a section with two other properties between the practice facility and new stadium.”
Designed for the ultimate football fan seeking an unforgettable tailgating experience, the landmark property is listed for $699,900.
In a post shared on X, the home’s current owner, Shane Prouty, who acquired the home 13 years ago for just $58,000, said he realized the time has come to transfer the torch for “the one and only OG” to a new owner and has high hopes of the property living up “to its potential.”
“As I look back on the last 14 years all I can say is it has been a wild ride!” he wrote. “We have met so many great people and made so many great friends along the way.
“However, the time has come for the one and only OG #BillsMafiaHouse to become something bigger, something better, and live up to its true potential.”
Prouty admitted that he does not believe he “has it in him” to carry the legacy of the home anymore, although he said he is “forever grateful” to everyone who has had a hand in the property’s history.
“With my career and family in my crosshairs it just isn’t in me to take it to the next level,” he continued. “We will always be around and always be a part of the tailgating scene somewhere! But the time has come [when] it won’t be [at the house].”
Prouty, who said he has not missed a single Bills home game in 16 years, insisted that he fully plans to continue supporting the team in their new stadium, but does not feel he can continue committing himself to the Buffalo squad while also managing the property’s maintenance.
Still, it seems he won’t have long to wait before offloading the property.
LaRusch said the seller received several offers prior to the listing hitting the MLS, revealing that she and Prouty will only entertain offers up until Feb. 9, the day after the Super Bowl.
While the property could be used as a primary or secondary residence, it is currently being used as an investment opportunity. The sellers originally used the home as their primary dwelling before turning it into a rental property several years ago.
Because the property sits on a double lot, there is opportunity to increase potential income by renting the land next to the home to those traveling to the game with RVs and campers.
“They rent the house and the space for people with campers to come and enjoy the games,” she said.
What makes the property more attractive and potentially even more lucrative is in addition to allowing short-term rentals, its new zoning status now offers the next buyer an abundance of opportunities, including the unique possibility to custom build a home of their dreams.
“It is zoned stadium mixed-use, so you could really use the property for anything,” she said. “It could be used for commercial or retail space; you could build a three-story building, or open a bar or restaurant. The possibilities are endless and it has tremendous exposure, catering to the thousands of fans who pass by each season.”
In addition to its prime location, the property also boasts a celebrity tie.
“(Buffalo Bills quarterback) Josh Allen filmed a commercial in there sitting on the couch,” LaRusch noted. “The entire house is decked out in all sorts of Bills memorabilia.”
The fan-favorite landmark is easily discernible from its exterior that boasts the Buffalo Bills logo and #BILLSMAFIA sign.
“Known globally as the epicenter of Buffalo football spirit, this iconic property is now available for the next chapter of its storied history,” the listing states.
“Whether your vision involves hosting the world’s most elite tailgate experience, creating a high-capacity parking revenue stream, or expanding the footprint of the existing ranch-style home, the sheer size of this land offers a canvas unlike any other in Orchard Park.”
Built in 1942, the ranch-style “high-yield investment opportunity” features a cozy living room, “partially updated” kitchen, and full bathroom tricked out with a (you guessed it!) Buffalo Bills shower curtain.
“We hope the next buyer will be another Bills superfan who loves the team just as much as the seller does,” LaRusch said.
