Welcome to Decatur — the small town people move to on purpose and rarely leave. A historic, walkable downtown with locally owned shops and restaurants, the Decatur Sculpture Tour, events at Madison Street Plaza, the City Pool and city parks, the Decatur Greenway trail, Adams Memorial Hospital and Bellmont schools — with Fort Wayne a straight shot up US 27. Homes here don't come on the market often, and land like this almost never does: 16.61 wooded acres just one mile from downtown. Mature hardwoods, level ground, mowed trails and a quiet, private setting at the end of a private lane. The homework is done: Adams County Regional Sewer District sewer connection is approved — no septic needed — City water hookup is available, NIPSCO natural gas is available, and electric serves the neighboring subdivision and the four homes on the lane. Geotechnical soil report complete: hard clay at 2.5 ft, 3,000 psf (Pounds Per. sq. ft.) bearing, no groundwater — ready for footings. 2026 survey with recorded 50-ft access easement and maintenance agreement in hand. Build your dream home, barndominium or hobby farm and keep every acre for yourself. Zoned AG (Agricultural — single-family homes and farm uses permitted); buyer to verify zoning for any alternate use. Two tax parcels sold together: 01-02-21-400-045.000-013 (10.646 ac) and 01-02-21-400-044.000-013 (5.97 ac). Survey, soil report and easement access document available on listing disclosures.
