About this home
This 2,000-square-foot Cape Cod with flexible living space in the walkable Whispering Meadows neighborhood is located within the sought-after Southwest Allen County school district. With all-new landscaping, the home boasts five bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including three on the main floor and two upstairs. A spacious loft provides extra room for storage, hobbies, or a second living area. The main level has a bright, open feel with a two-story foyer and a living room centered around a stone gas-log fireplace. The kitchen includes stainless-steel appliances, a pantry, and plenty of everyday workspace. Out back, mature trees and curated landscaping create a private setting with room to relax, entertain, and enjoy the outdoors. A two-car garage and convenient southwest Fort Wayne location complete the home.
Southwest Fort Wayne, located between Jefferson Pointe and the Aboite Trails corridor, is a suburban and commercial Fort Wayne neighborhood with broad arterials and pocketed greenways. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Illinois Road and Lima Road retail spine, where big-box plazas, local eateries, and steady traffic set the tempo. Housing trends toward late-20th-century subdivisions and newer infill, with curving streets and attached garages. Chain O’ Lakes Park and the Rivergreenway add long, flat paths that shape daily routines. The Clyde Theatre and The Club Room at The Clyde anchor nights out with live music and a classic marquee glow. Sweetwater’s campus and gear showroom lends a creative, studio-minded edge to the area.

You won't believe all of the space in this 3 bedroom 2 bath home in Whispering Meadows. With over 1,900 square feet of living space on two levels, there is plenty of room to spread out. The foyer is two stories with stairs to the loft where you will find what could be your media room and office or guest room at either end. The loft overlooks the living room and beautiful stone corner gas log fireplace. The kitchen has updated countertops, stylish backsplash and stainless appliances that remain with the home. Off the kitchen is the over-sized two car garage with plenty of room for two cars and storage and there are pull-down stairs for the floored attic above. The bedrooms are tucked away privately on one side of the house where you will find the master, ensuite bath and TWO walk-in closets. The two additional bedrooms each have large walk-in closets. Outside you will find a nice patio and pergola for entertaining. The roof is only a couple of years old and was a complete tear off. You will find that everything in this home has been very well maintained and cared for.
