Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty | Fort Worth
The Tudor-style home at 2141 Pembroke Drive in Fort Worth is a jewel-in-the-crown of Berkeley Place/Cheltenham’s charming 1920s homes. Built in 1922 and thoughtfully updated for today, it’s a picture-perfect cottage.
At nearly 2,400 square feet, plus a finished basement, the home offers three bedrooms and two full baths. The gracious and large living room features many elegantly paned windows, detailed crown moldings and a dramatic focal-point gas fireplace. It opens to a large formal dining room, it, too, with elegant crown moldings plus French doors that open to the backyard living area.
The kitchen is sophisticated and recalls the kitchens of the great manor houses with its white cabinetry, glass-front upper cabinets and pale-green granite countertops. Great meals and even better conversations can be had in the sunny breakfast room, with its charming millwork arch, built-in glass-front cabinets and exposures to the outdoors on three sides.
The generously sized master bedroom features a private bath with beautiful millwork and a dual-sink vanity. The guest bedrooms are well-sized, too, and the updated hall bath is like a spa, with its freestanding tub, large glass-walled shower and elegant white millwork and moldings.
Outdoors, the luxuries are many; a sparkling, freeform, saltwater pool with spa; a covered outdoor kitchen with chef-grade appliances; a vaulted-ceiling game room building with stone fireplace, a guest house and potting shed.
The unique property intertwines the past with the present. The home is listed for $995,000 by Harriet Henderson.
