Property remarks

No Builder Wait. No Neighbors Behind You. Like-new and better than new in Stratford Forest. This 2019 custom-built ranch offers 1,708 finished square feet of single-level living. The owners built it for themselves and chose beautiful upgrades throughout, and it’s move-in ready today with no builder wait and no construction punch list. The heart of the home is an open-concept kitchen with Cambria quartz countertops, a large island with seating, a gas range, and a walk-in pantry. The dishwasher was replaced in 2023–24. The kitchen flows into the dining area and a great room anchored by a striking floor-to-ceiling gas log fireplace. The sellers went well beyond the original plans, adding luxury vinyl plank flooring in place of carpet, extra recessed lighting, and dimmers throughout, so every room can go from bright and open to warm and cozy.The floor plan includes 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The 3rd bedroom could easily function as a home-office or den. The primary suite has its own private bath and a walk-in closet, and the second full bath includes a tub. A laundry room sits just off the garage entry, keeping everyday life organized. All appliances stay, including the washer and dryer.Outside, step from the back patio into a fully fenced yard on a 0.19-acre lot. The yard backs to wooded land that is part of the Veterans Memorial, so the view won’t be built on.Stratford Forest offers a 1.5-mile walking loop around the neighborhood and pond. The low $216 annual HOA covers lawn mowing, snow removal, pond maintenance, mailboxes, and the common areas, so weekends stay yours. The home is in Northwest Allen County Schools. You’re minutes from Jefferson Pointe, Trader Joe’s, The Fresh Market, local dining, and Lutheran Hospital, and about 15 minutes from downtown Fort Wayne.
