About This Home

$1,400 deposit, Available Now

Tired of boring rental ads? Well, buckle up! We’ve got the rental of your dreams—and a few laughs along the way. Picture this: a charming two-story haven just a hop, skip, and a jump (okay, 2 blocks) from the serene River Greenway Trails on the St. Joseph River. Perfect for biking, jogging, or those "I need to pretend I'm active" leisurely walks. But wait, there’s more! You're less than three-quarters of a mile from all the action: Columbia Street, Promenade Park, Headwaters Park, Lawton Park, Science Central, Historic Old Fort, Lakeside Park, East Central Park... and basically every park ever created. It's like living in a park lover’s paradise! And if you're not feeling park-y, no worries. Just a quarter-mile stroll to Northside Park and the historic East State Blvd District, where you can stuff your face at local eateries and shop ‘til you drop. The house? Oh, it’s a gem! An inviting, large open front porch for morning coffee or evening wine (we don’t judge). Inside, it’s got all the bells and whistles: newer flooring, newer windows, brand new furnaces A one-car detached garage with a new opener ensures secure off-street parking and extra storage for your collection of...whatever it is you collect. Of course, we do have some fine print. Must pass a background and credit check (translation: pay your bills on time and don't have a history of evictions). Got good credit? You're golden! Sorry, no section 8**** small pet only with fee. MLS ID 202629056

City - Fort Wayne

Fort Wayne sits at the confluence of three rivers — the St. Marys, St. Joseph, and Maumee — a geography that has shaped the city's identity since General Anthony Wayne established a military post here in 1794. Today, Indiana's second-largest city carries a grounded, confident energy, anchored by major employers like Parkview Regional Medical Center, the reimagined Electric Works campus in the former General Electric complex, and academic institutions Purdue University Fort Wayne and Indiana Tech. Neighborhoods range from the historic, walkable streets of West Central with its Victorian architecture to the quieter suburban pace of Aboite and Dupont on the city's outskirts.

The rental market reflects that variety well. Renters can choose from converted downtown lofts along The Landing on Columbia Street, spacious apartment communities across the northwest and southwest corridors, and townhomes that suit a range of lifestyles.
