OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 3/30 12:30-2:30PM. You know the saying “stop and smell the roses”? Well, that’ll be easy to do for the next owners of 1636 Lake Avenue! Located with a direct view of one of Fort Wayne’s most picturesque parks and wedding venues, Lakeside Rose Gardens, this home features the perfect mix of classic character and modern updates. The covered front porch provides the perfect setting for quiet evenings overlooking the park or friendly chats with the neighbors. Step inside to the living room, where abundant natural light and high ceilings invite you in. Steps away is the large dining room where you’ll find plenty of room for dinner parties, game nights, crafting a cocktail, or a relaxing evening in. Next, you’ll find the large kitchen where the modern amenities begin to pop up- all stainless steel appliances, with the dishwasher, gas wall oven, electric cooktop, new countertops, and tile backsplash all installed within the past 2 years. Upstairs you’ll find the large, spa-like bathroom, fully redone in 2024 and meticulously designed for functionality and aesthetic. The primary bedroom was formerly 2 bedrooms that were combined into 1 large room with 2 closets and “his and hers” ceiling fans for those who can’t agree on temperature. In the backyard you will find a large concrete patio poured in 2020, and privacy fence installed in 2019. The property is rounded out with a 1 car garage, conveniently located off of a side street. Just minutes from downtown, local coffee shops/restaurants, and the Rivergreenway, is your opportunity to own a well maintained home, with a unique view of a great Fort Wayne amenity!
