Westcliff is an established suburb near parks and Texas Christian Univ
Westcliff offers midcentury homes and access to Fort Worth amenities. The community is located next to Texas Christian University, a top-rated, private Christian college with approximately 13,000 students enrolled in 2025. "It's close to campus, so people can walk to football and basketball games, or even tailgate in their front yards," says Realtor Thurman Schweitzer with Briggs Freeman Sotheby's International. Westcliff also sits near an extensive greenbelt and several parks, a draw for people who enjoy the outdoors. Schweitzer notes that these parks are part of the Trinity Trail System, which spans across Fort Worth. Nearby highways provide access to communities around the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, and students attend highly rated schools, such as Paschal High.
The Princeton Review named Texas Christian University as one of the most beautiful colleges in the nation.
Westcliff has multiple entrances to the Trinity River Trails.

Eclectic 20th-century homes with varied pricing
Westcliff is a suburb that developed between the early and mid-20th century. "There are mostly 1950s suburban style homes, but it's quite developed now, and people walk the neighborhood," Schweitzer says. The community mainly consists of densely built houses set back from winding roads. Tidy front yards are lined with oak, mesquite and pine trees, and backyards are often large enough for patio-lined pools. There's an eclectic mix of housing styles. Buyers will find ranch-style and Craftsman-style houses situated across from Cape Cod, Tudor Revival and midcentury modern homes. Prices here largely depend on the level of updates completed but typically range between $350,000 and $725,000. Near South Hulen Street, several condo buildings are located, with units priced between $150,000 and $325,000. There's also some student housing near Berry Street. "That's the neighborhood's dividing line; there's more student housing on one side of Berry, and more alumni, faculty and families live on the other," Schweitzer says.
Craftsman homes with lots of character sit near the school campus in Westcliff.
Large, Cape Cod style homes can be found all throughout Westcliff.
