Monticello is bordered by the Trinity River
When a neighborhood shares its name with one of the most iconic homes in the country, chances are it will have a luxurious feel. The Monticello neighborhood of Fort Worth certainly delivers. “It’s very prestigious, kind of known to be a higher-end community in Fort Worth,” says Brittney Kosev, broker and owner of BK Real Estate, who’s been selling homes in the area for 16 years. “It’s a mixture of renovated properties coupled with teardowns and new builds.” In addition to its posh homes, Monticello boasts natural beauty and a prime location. The neighborhood is just west of downtown Fort Worth and bordered by the meandering West Fork Trinity River to the north.

The streets are lined with contemporary homes in Monticello.
Monticello’s curb appeal
Monticello offers an attractive mix of homes, ranging from renovated bungalows to extravagant Classical and contemporary homes that loom large on the quiet neighborhood streets. Driving through the tree-lined avenues, home seekers will also find some Spanish Revival homes with red tile roofs and stucco siding. Certain parts of the neighborhood feature large twisting live oaks in the front lawns of the houses, offering privacy and giving a touch of Southern charm to the area. Homes in the neighborhood tend to be more expensive than in other parts of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, with the lower end being around $500,000 and homes frequently listed in the million-dollar range.
The sidewalk-lined streets make Monticello an excellent neighborhood for walking, which Kosev says is popular with residents. “It’s a very active neighborhood as far as walking, jogging, strollers,” she says. “There’s a neighborhood park within walking distance to most of the homes.”

Spend the day at Monticello Park or Trinity Trail
Monticello Park on Dorothy Lane North has been in the heart of the neighborhood since the late 1920s. In addition to the tennis courts, the park has a playground and open green space. Although there are only two courts, locals say people are friendly and frequently rotate out to let others enjoy a game of tennis. Anglers, kayakers, walkers and bikers are apt to head to the Trinity Trail system. This system features more than 100 miles of trails along the Trinity River throughout Fort Worth. Monticello residents can access the trails at a couple of locations along Rockwood Park Drive.
