This charmer has it all. Enjoy peace of mind with a 5 year old roof, Vinyl Max windows, brand new kitchen appliances, and a furnace less than a year old plus a gas wall heater backup for emergencies. Outside you’ll find a big backyard with off street parking and a shed for storage. Centrally located and perfectly positioned for convenience: just ½ mile from Promenade Park, 1 mile from Fort Wayne TinCaps Field, 1.5 miles from Electric Works, and steps from Bloomingdale Elementary, walk your kids to school! The major systems are already updated. With a little cosmetic love, this one can truly be amazing. Don’t miss your chance to make it yours!
Bloomingdale, located between Sherman Boulevard and Coliseum Boulevard, is a residential and commercial Fort Wayne neighborhood with mid-century streetscapes and a steady, lived-in pace. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the busy Sherman Blvd and E State Blvd corridor, where auto shops, corner eateries, and everyday services line the roadway. Housing leans toward modest postwar ranches and tidy brick homes set along mature trees and broad lawns. Headwaters Park and the Rivergreenway frame nearby routines with trails and seasonal events. The Fort Wayne Children’s Zoo and Science Central add a cultural pull beyond the blocks. Glenbrook Square anchors errands with a classic mall footprint.
