This Stunner in Fort Worth’s Frisco Heights is More Urban Than Suburban

No, Frisco Heights is not a far-flung suburb. It’s actually a Near Southside enclave near TCU bounded by University Place and Park Hill.

This particular property in Frisco Heights was built in 2009. With more than 4,300 square feet, 2516 Sandage Avenue is the epitome of low-key luxury living on a near maintenance-free lot.

Landscaping is comprised of attractive, water-saving, native plants. The entrance is accessed from a stone-paved walkway leading to a discreet door in an adjacent wall, creating a sense of privacy and security.

A pair of handsome oak-paneled, half-light, doors fill the entry with light. Floors on the lower level and stairs are of whitewashed oak, reminiscent of an art gallery.

The plan is entirely open with an island demarcating eat-in the kitchen from the living area. The living area centers on a gas log fireplace.

The kitchen features a gas cooktop, wine refrigerator, walk-in pantry, and built-in microwave. Laundry and access to the two-car garage are behind the kitchen

The four-bedroom, three-and-one-half-bath house features a ground-floor primary suite with the remaining three bedrooms on the second floor. The ensuite bath includes twin sinks, a shower stall, an under-arch garden bath, and a private water closet.

The upstairs floor plan offers versatility and flexibility and includes a large, casual, second living area. Most windows have wooden shutters. At back a sprightly pergola with a ceiling fan creates an outdoor living area. The outdoor space is nearly maintenance-free with gravel and a small patch of grass to fret over.

The residence is part of an association with a modest $500 annual fee. Buyers with young children will be pleased to know that they have access to highly rated Lily B. Clayton Elementary School. The neighborhood is pedestrian-friendly with TCU and the zoo both within walking distance.
