10025 Saint Joe Center Road Fort Wayne, IN  46835-9515

This charming country-in-the-city home is filled with character and positive energy. Located just inside the city limits, it offers convenient walking access to groceries, restaurants, and shopping, while nestled on 1.5 acres of trees, gardens, and a meadow. The property provides both privacy and easy access to bike/walking paths, major highways, and excellent schools. Features include a two-car garage with an extended concrete driveway and a custom-built shed. The grounds are home to native pollinators and a variety of perennial flowers and herbs. Originally a barn on a farm homestead, the main house was converted in 1967, with an addition built in 2000. A large clerestory loft overlooks the addition's living room, brightened by south-facing windows with functional wood shutters. Upstairs, a loft extends from the primary bedroom and full bath, with two additional rooms offering ample storage. Downstairs, the original kitchen is complemented by a hallway closet and two cozy rooms that could serve as bedrooms or studies. The kitchen features a 4-stage under-sink reverse osmosis drinking water filtration system. The basement includes a full workshop space, a washer and electric dryer, and a 115-gallon hot water heater. Other updates include a full roof replacement in 2017 and a Jotul wood-burning stove for extra heat in the colder months.
