About this home

Charming 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home in Fort Wayne, offering 1,120 square feet with two separate living spaces. A front living room welcomes you in, while a family room at the back of the home gives you a second spot to relax, watch the game, set up a home office, or give everyone a little extra breathing room. Two full bathrooms add everyday convenience that's hard to find in a home this size. The water heater is just 2 years old, and the furnace is only 9 years old for added peace of mind; outside, a nice-sized backyard offers room to garden, play, or entertain, and the detached garage provides parking and extra storage. Located in Fort Wayne's 46805 area with easy access to downtown, shopping, and dining. Whether you're buying your first home or looking to downsize, 1601 Bayer Ave is ready to welcome you home!
