Five Points Home for Rent

Five Points is a wooded suburb in Fort Wayne, Indiana, that’s close to major parks, a zoo and the downtown area. The 340-acre Franke Park has several walking trails and fishing by Shoaff Lake, and Fort Wayne Zoo is home to many giraffes, stingrays and crocodiles. Several events are held at the open-air Foellinger Theatre throughout the year, including the annual summer concert series. Residential streets are characterized by narrow sidewalks and mature trees, and many homes from the mid-1900s are built on small lots. Cozy bungalows and minimalistic ranch-style homes typically range from 600 to 2,000 square feet with a median sale price of $150,000. The area is served by Fort Wayne Community Schools such as Franke Park Elementary, Northwood Middle and North Side High School. Citilink buses stop along Sherman Boulevard and provide public transportation to the downtown area. Baseball fans can watch the TinCaps play at Parkview Field, while art enthusiasts can explore the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. There are a handful of casual eateries such as King Gyros and Mo’s Tacos, and there are several retail options between Northcrest Shopping Center and Glenbrook Square. Local grocery stores include Kroger, Target and Fresh Thyme Market.
