2818 NW 17th Street

A third of an acre inside Fort Worth city limits is not something you find twice. Most lots this size at this price point are 20 minutes further out. This one's in Belmont Park, close enough to feel like the city and big enough to forget you're in it.

The yard is the point. Room for a garden, or greenhouse that truly produces something, a shop, a boat, dogs that need to run, or just space between you and the neighbors (the kind of breathing room that's disappearing from Fort Worth lot by lot as builders carve everything smaller). Here, it's already done. A covered front porch faces it, so you can sit with a coffee and use the space instead of just owning it.

The house itself is small and honest about it. A 1945 build, one level, updated home. That's the opportunity. It's priced like a starting point, not a finished product, which means the upside belongs to whoever buys it. Add another wing, add another bathroom, every dollar you put in goes straight into equity.

This is a foothold, not a forever house. For the right buyer, that's exactly the point.
