I’m a big fan of the La Cantera and Monserrat properties in Fort Worth. I attended a Colonial Ladies Tennis Association event there a couple of years ago felt like I had been transported to Texas Hill Country and on vacation. It’s not like living right in the city where you can’t see the horizon, or way out in the country where you can’t just rush out for a quick bite and meet up with friends. It’s the BEST of both worlds, you are minutes from downtown and best the private schools and restaurants of Fort Worth, but there’s stretching room and the wide open spaces of West Fort Worth…read beautiful sunsets.

This Sunday I jotted around Phase II and III of La Cantera and popped into a couple of houses that I thought you might want to see for yourself.

Here’s 8512 Tierra Court | 76126

This home was constructed by M the Builders which is the union of Maverick Homes and Monument Custom Builders with a combined 50 years experience. I thought the home felt solid using high quality materials and close attention to detail. I made the kiddos take off their soccer cleats before coming in, but the soccer ball did happen to make it’s way into the home. {insert blushing emoji} Let’s just say these 4 rambunctious kids would really have to work hard to make any dents in this home.

There’s one other house I think you should take a peek at also by M the Builders…

5216 Sendero Drive | 76126

I spy a mud room. Swoon. A mother’s dream.

Those 4 feet between coming in from the garage and entering the home represents miles of civilization. I currently live in the stone ages in my home sans mud room. Sigh. Clearly women are helping design homes these days and contributing with the refinement of kid clutter.

La Cantera will have Open Houses this Thursday, September 24th from 4 to 6pm. They will have cocktails and hors d’oeuvres for this happy hour. This is a great opportunity to explore the neighborhood! If you can’t make the Open House, you can call to schedule a private showing: 817.247.6464

Here’s the BEST part of deal. John Zimmerman of Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s who represents these homes, available lots, and more in La Cantera is having a private VIP party Thursday, October 1st for an evening with the Bellamy Brothers. I have passes for 2 for one lucky reader! Simply comment below and let me know what feature you cannot live without if you were building a home here. Winner announced Friday, September 25th. Good luck!****
