About this apartment rental

Summary:
Step back in time at this charming 1920s duplex across from Lakeside Park & Rose Garden. The downstairs 2-bedroom blends original character—wood floors, trim, and tall ceilings—with simple modern comforts like Wi-Fi, Smart TV, and a stocked kitchen. It’s cozy, quiet, and feels like home—perfect for couples, families, or anyone who appreciates history and heart over high-end polish.

The Space:
Unit A occupies the entire main floor of a classic Fort Wayne duplex built in the early 1900s. It’s the kind of home that welcomes you with warmth the moment you step inside—sunlight spilling across original hardwood floors, tall ceilings that breathe, and wood trim that tells a story of simpler times.

The living room offers a cozy place to unwind after a walk through Lakeside Park, complete with a Smart TV, comfortable seating, and soft lighting. The two bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged for rest—each with a full or queen bed, quality linens, and plenty of storage. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, dishes, and the essentials to prepare meals at home.

You’ll also enjoy in-unit laundry, a full bathroom, and climate control to keep things comfortable year-round. The charm is in its imperfections—creaky floors, original details, and that unmistakable “old home” energy that gives this space its heart.

Guest Access:
Guests enjoy full private access to the entire Unit A apartment. Entry is through the front foyer, where you’ll take the door on the right, clearly labeled Unit A.
You’ll have access to:

The full 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment

Private kitchen, living room, and laundry area

High-speed Wi-Fi and Smart TV

Free street parking on California Ave or Tennessee Ave (corner lot for easy access)

We kindly ask that guests be mindful of noise, as this is a duplex with another unit upstairs.

The Neighborhood:
Sitting in the Lakeside Historic District, one of Fort Wayne’s oldest and most picturesque neighborhoods. You’re directly across from Lakeside Park & Rose Garden, known for its beautiful walking trails, ponds, and over 2,000 rose bushes that bloom each summer.

This is a safe, walkable, tree-lined community filled with classic homes from the early 20th century. Within minutes, you’ll find coffee shops, bakeries, restaurants, and the Parkview Randallia Hospital—making it ideal for both leisure travelers and visiting medical professionals.

Downtown Fort Wayne is just a 5-minute drive away, offering dining, entertainment, and the riverside Promenade Park.

Getting Around:
Most guests choose to drive, as Fort Wayne is spread out—but you’ll find this neighborhood incredibly convenient.

Free street parking directly in front or along Tennessee Ave.

Downtown: 5 minutes by car.

Parkview Randallia Hospital: 4 minutes by car or 20-minute walk.

Grocery & Restaurants: within a mile.

Biking and walking are pleasant options within the neighborhood and around the park.

Other Things to Note:
This is a historic home—it’s well-maintained but retains its old charm: creaky floors, original trim, and a few quirks that come with age.

There’s a separate unit upstairs (Unit B), so please respect quiet hours after 10 PM.

The neighborhood is residential and quiet, ideal for guests seeking a peaceful, authentic Fort Wayne stay—not a party atmosphere.

If you love homes with soul, this is your place.

Interaction with Guests:
We provide self-check-in for flexibility and convenience via electronic keypad. You’ll receive your code before arrival.

I’m just a message or call away if you need anything—restaurant recommendations, assistance, or local insights. Otherwise, we respect your privacy and let you enjoy the space at your own pace.
