Situated on a landscaped corner lot in Monticello, this updated 1936 residence embodies the timeless character for which the neighborhood is known. Classic architectural details, curated interiors, and inviting outdoor spaces create a home that feels both elegant and welcoming.
Flanking the front entry are a lacquered blue formal living room with a fireplace and a bright formal dining room, both enhanced by custom millwork, designer wallpaper, and natural light. An elegant arched hallway with painted wood paneling creates a transition into the heart of the home.
The bright kitchen features marble countertops, a center island, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a breakfast room. A widened opening connects the kitchen to the spacious family room with a built-in bar and also serves as an entry from the covered side patio, the detached garage, and gated access to Dorothy Lane. A laundry room and powder bath complete the first floor.
Upstairs, a generous game room offers flexible living space, along with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary suite serves as a private retreat with a fireplace, dual vanities, a soaking tub, a walk-in closet, and a covered balcony overlooking the side yard. One secondary bedroom also enjoys private balcony access.
Outside, the backyard has been transformed into a private oasis. Turf throughout, a putting green, pool and spa, mature shade trees, drip irrigation, and a built-in MosquitoNix system create a setting designed for enjoyment. The detached two-car garage is complemented by a covered outdoor kitchen with a sink, bar seating, a pool bath, and an outdoor shower, ideal for entertaining.
With gated access from Dorothy Lane, beautiful architectural details throughout, and a corner-lot setting framed by mature landscaping, this classically elegant home offers the warmth, character, and livability that continue to make Monticello one of Fort Worth's most beloved neighborhoods.
Directions: From 7th St. Go north on Dorothy Ln., and the property is on the Northeast corner of Dorothy and 4th St.
