Ask people what they want in their next home and you'll hear two answers that seem to cancel each other out. "I want space, quiet and privacy." And: "I don't want to drive 40 minutes for groceries." 5628 Leesburg Rd is one of the rare listings that delivers both.
The country half
The house sits on 0.64 acres on Fort Wayne's northwest side. The lot is deep, the backyard is fenced, and the setting feels secluded and private. Mornings sound like birds, not traffic. You have room for a garden, a fire pit, a few hens if zoning allows, and a detached two-car garage for whatever you like to build or fix.
The city half
You're roughly 10 minutes from the conveniences of Fort Wayne. Grocery runs, school pickups, the gym, a night out downtown: none of it requires planning your day around the drive. Leesburg Road itself runs southeast toward the University of Saint Francis and the west side of downtown.
Why "both" matters more than either
Rural properties farther out often come with tradeoffs: longer commutes, slower emergency response, fewer services. City lots come with neighbors 15 feet away. A close-in property with real land avoids both, which is why homes like this tend to draw a lot of interest.
