A small rural town in the city of New Haven

Sprawling farmland and quaint urban centers twine together to create a small-town feel in New Haven, a neighborhood in New Haven City. Several major highways also run through the community, connecting it to nearby Fort Wayne. "It has a little smaller, more rural feel, but yet is closely connected," says Kim Doster, a New Haven resident and Realtor of 15 years at Century 21 Bradley Realty, Inc. The Maumee River runs through the neighborhood, and several parks dot the streets, offering residents ample outdoor recreational opportunities. Homebuyers can find everything from new builds on small lots to old ranch-style homes on several acres. New Haven's downtown district is also growing, giving residents access to urban amenities.

Local businesses line Broadway Street

Buy bespoke furniture at Niche Market Furniture or grab a hot cup of coffee at Common Grounds Coffeehouse along Broadway Street, New Haven's main thoroughfare. Paint the town red at one of several bars, including Carl's Tavern, a wings and craft beer joint. Lincoln Plaza sits near the corner of Indiana State Road 930 and Brookwood Drive and has a Kroger and Go Workout fitness center. Chapel Ridge Shopping Center, just off U.S. Route 24 and U.S. Interstate Highway 469, is full of familiar retailers and eateries like Walmart, Walgreens and Cracker Barrel. Residents also utilize local farms for fresh produce. Schmucker's Produce Farm & Greenhouse is a family-owned and operated farm known for its canned jams and seasonal fruits and vegetables. The Kurtz Family Farmstead also offers locally grown veggies at its market, Kurtz Produce.

Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society celebrates how train transportation shaped New Haven

Train transportation has long been an important part of New Haven's history. In the 1890s, tracks were laid throughout the city, and the New Haven station was built, making New Haven an import and export hub. Today, the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society works to honor that history by hosting family-friendly educational events and vintage passenger experiences aboard its restored steam locomotive. Residents can also enjoy events hosted by the city throughout the year, including seasonal craft and food markets and an annual 4th of July celebration.

New Haven is a "low inventory" market

Home prices are comparable to surrounding areas, but the market is slowing down. "It's a low inventory market like everywhere else. It's definitely slowing," says Doster. Still, homebuyers can find many architectural styles here. Three- to four-bedroom Colonial Revival, Cape Cod, craftsman and ranch-style homes on large plots can sell for between $90,000 and $220,000. New contemporary builds in subdivisions can sell for between $225,000 and $440,000.
