Convenient neighborhood built around Ridglea Country Club

Built around the Ridglea Country Club and its two golf courses, the Ridglea neighborhood stands out for its convenience. Residents in the northern end of the area can find several restaurants and shops nearby, while those residing between the club's north and south courses find themselves closer to outdoor activities. "It's a very friendly place to walk and a great location," says Barbara Schweitzer, a global real estate advisor with Briggs Freeman Sotheby's International. Schweitzer is a Fort Worth native with four years of real estate experience. "There are lots of young families and community involvement," she says. Adjacent major roadways provide access to the Metroplex and a short drive to downtown Fort Worth.

Two golf courses and several courts at Ridglea Country Club

Ridglea Country Club sits in the heart of the Ridglea Hills. The membership-only club opened in 1954 and includes a north course with narrow fairways and small greens and a south course with less terrain. Beyond golf, members can dive into the deep end of the pool or swim laps in the marked lanes. Tennis and pickleball players grab their racquets and practice their swing at one of the 11 hard courts or three pickleball courts. Wedged between the club's north and south courses, Ridglea Hills Park provides a vibrant red-and-yellow playground where kids race through the woodchips between two slides and a merry-go-round. Dogs run through the North Z Boaz Dog Park, 10 acres built on a former golf course with accessible ponds and agility structures. The Como Community Center offers a playroom where kids can run free while adults work up a sweat at the fitness center.

Ranch-styles and Mid-century modern homes

Prominent yards and broad, bushy trees decorate the streets in the central and southern areas of the Ridglea neighborhood. Appropriately named Ridglea Hills has limited sidewalks; however, wide streets offer ample room to stroll the community. The northern end of the neighborhood sits on flatter land and includes more sidewalks and wider roads with street parking. Houses typically cost between $250,000 for a ranch style and more than $1 million for a modern, mid-century or Colonial Revival home. Two-bedroom condos cost around $140,000 for a standard unit near major freeways to $740,000 for a newly renovated Mediterranean Condo.

Serving submarine subs for over 50 years

On the north end of Ridglea, shopping and dining options exist along Camp Bowie Boulevard. Whole Foods, Sprouts Farmer's Market and Walmart Neighborhood Market are several nearby grocery stores. Drew's Place Soulfood offers southern favorites with a skylit interior and outdoor patio décor. Galligaskins Submarines Restaurant and Catering serves submarine sandwiches and burgers to patrons seated in green booths, with red walls and a wooden silhouette cutout of Texas as a backdrop. The sandwich shop first opened in 1972 and remains a community staple. A few miles to the northwest are big-name retailers, such as Target.

Elaborate Christmas lights on Luther Lake

The community gets involved in holiday festivities. During the Christmas season, multicolored lights decorate the streets and glisten along Luther Lake. "Throughout the neighborhood, you will find very elaborate displays," Schweitzer says. Luther Lake also hosts a big party for Independence Day in the summer, including a large fireworks show.

National champion cheerleading at Arlington Heights High

Ridglea students may start at Ridglea Hills Elementary School, which receives a B rating from Niche. Ridglea Hills participates in a 1:1 Chromebook program, providing students with digital devices to facilitate learning. Schweitzer says there is a lot of community and parent involvement with the school. William Monnig Middle School earns a C-plus and provides students with art-centric electives like jazz, theater, photography and choir. Arlington Heights High School, a B-plus-rated institution, won its first two National Cheerleading Association national championships in competitive cheerleading in 2024.
