About This Listing

Property remarks

Packed with the character that is nearly impossible to duplicate and situated on one of Fort Wayne’s few remaining original brick streets, this classic American Foursquare has retained its most beautiful original features: gorgeous hardwood floors, rich woodwork, leaded glass windows, intricate millwork, and 12-foot ceilings. You are welcomed into the foyer by a charming built-in bench, inviting you to sit down and stay awhile. From there, the great room showcases glass-front built-ins flanking the entry, providing the perfect place for your favorite books and collected treasures. A generously sized dining room and full bath complete the main living spaces before leading into the bright, updated kitchen. The kitchen brings a fresh feel to the home, with built-in pantry space offering both character and practicality. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms and a second full bath provide everyday comfort, while the spacious covered front porch makes a convincing case for slower mornings and evenings spent taking in the downtown skyline. While the historic charm remains intact, the important updates are much more recent, including separate HVAC systems for each floor (both replaced in 2021), electrical updates in 2021, a new roof in 2022, and new siding in 2024.
