About This Home

As of May 2017

Galapagos is a beautiful street within Fort Wayne's Bridgewater neighborhood, featuring sidewalks, lakes, great homes & friendly residents. Located minutes from Southwest Allen County Schools, the neighborhood is a highly desired Aboite Township area in which to live. This home features stacked stone accents, a covered front porch, stamped concrete surfaces, a fully fenced back yard and a large deck that leads to the patio below. Inside, the open concept is fresh, beautifully maintained and full of great detail. Arched openings and pillars define the dining room while leaving it open to the foyer and great room. Wainscot, tray ceilings and wood floors complete the look of this dining room. The great room (cathedral ceilings, large windows) shares a see-through fireplace with the hearth room and is a great focal point. With coffered ceilings above, the room is spacious and inviting as it opens to the kitchen. Granite countertops, large island, stainless appliances and a large walk-in pantry give the kitchen both good looks and function. The attached hearth room and breakfast area provide wonderful places to gather. Unique to this home is an arched niche in the kitchen, providing a great station for daily items. The mudroom, just off the 3 car garage, has cubbies and a great deal of space for basket-type storage. The attached laundry room has a utility sink. Beyond the laundry room, the master bedroom awaits.
