About this home

Some homes provide shelter. Others become the setting where life unfolds. Welcome to 4536 Winding Way Drive, a thoughtfully updated two-story home nestled in the heart of River Bend Woods, one of Fort Wayne's most beloved northeast neighborhoods. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and nearly 1,700 square feet of living space, this home strikes a rare balance between comfort, functionality, and character. The main level offers multiple gathering spaces, allowing family and friends to come together while still providing room to spread out and enjoy quieter moments. A warm and inviting fireplace anchors the living area, while the adjoining dining room and kitchen create a natural flow for everyday living and entertaining alike. Substantial improvements were completed in 2022, including flooring, paint, granite countertops, central air conditioning, water heater, and additional updates throughout the home. Since then, the current owners have continued to invest in both the property's functionality and enjoyment, installing new toilets, replacing the back door, updating bathroom fixtures and shower heads, replacing the thermostat, upgrading the heater blower motor, adding ceiling fans and lighting throughout the upstairs bedrooms, and enhancing the home's smart technology features. Outside, the property continues to impress. Ten trees were professionally removed and stumps ground, creating a more open and usable outdoor environment while preserving the beauty of the surrounding neighborhood. The fenced backyard offers a private setting for gatherings, recreation, pets, or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home. Yet what makes River Bend Woods special extends beyond the property lines. Residents enjoy access to the Knopp Trail walking path, neighborhood river access, an annual catered summer block party, and a cherished Christmas walk that brings neighbors together during the holiday season. In a time when many neighborhoods feel disconnected, River Bend Woods remains a community in the truest sense of the word. The ADT security system, including door and window sensors, doorbell camera, and rear camera, will remain with the home. The MyQ smart garage system allows convenient operation and monitoring directly from your phone. Conveniently located near shopping, dining, schools, parks, and major transportation routes, this home offers thoughtful updates, modern conveniences, and a true sense of community.
