About this home

A rare opportunity to own a piece of Fort Wayne history — completely reimagined for modern living. Originally relocated to preserve the beauty and character of downtown Fort Wayne, this stunning 4-bedroom, 3½-bath home has been fully remodeled from top to bottom. Everything is new, while the timeless charm remains intact. Major updates include a new roof, new windows, new siding, new furnace, new central air, and all new flooring throughout — offering true peace of mind for years to come. Inside, you’ll love the tall ceilings, abundant natural light, and the inviting front porch that captures the historic feel of the neighborhood. The spacious kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring a large island perfect for gathering, entertaining, and everyday living. The fully finished basement adds incredible flexibility with a full bathroom — ideal for guests, a home office, recreation space, or additional living quarters. Located directly across the street from Electric Works, you’re steps away from restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and one of the most vibrant developments in the city. Historic character. Modern updates. Prime location. This home is in the Local Historic District. https://www.cityoffortwayne.in.gov/202/Historic-Preservation-Commission This is downtown living at its finest.
