This charming American Colonial home was built by Fort Wayne grocer, turned home builder, developer, and realtor, Martin Baade, in 1928. He and his wife, Adaline, were trustees in the creation of the Park View Terrace addition when it was created and platted in June 1924. Its tree-lined streets, unique median island, and overall natural beauty pair perfectly with its adjacency to historic Foster Park. After 98 years, this home’s profound craftsmanship and choice of materials still shine through with compliments and additions curated to meet the demands and tastes of modern living. Upon entry, the living room, graced with arched entries through breezeways and corridors, is showcased by a handsome fireplace and flanked perfectly by a traditional dining room. The beautiful oak floors and warm walnut doors, gorgeous original hardware, three natural light-filled bedrooms, a sizable full bath, and stunning iron staircase balustrade make the second floor a sight to see. Beside the dining room is an absolutely stunning renovated kitchen with custom cabinetry, new flooring, granite countertops, a new LG appliance package, bar seating, a bonus dining area perfect for a long family-style table, and a grand built-in buffet on the south wall. There is a conveniently and freshly renovated half bath off the kitchen and dining room that can’t be missed. Off the kitchen is the door to the back yard and patio, but don't forget to check out 600 sq ft+ the finished basement, complete with a premium full-size washer and gas dryer, yoga studio, and workshop space. There is also a brand new gas furnace installed down there, and the air ducts were just cleaned. When you check out the back yard, notice there are two natural gas hookups for a BBQ, so grill where you like on the brick patio. The back yard is beautifully manicured with mature perennials in the beds, evening lighting on the fence, and a gate to the shared drive. There is so much more to this property; it is better to see it in person!
