2801 5th Avenue

Nestled in the heart of Ryan Place, the only residential neighborhood in Fort Worth listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this 1950 home blends timeless character with thoughtful, already-completed updates. Original hardwood floors, a vintage tile bath, and period details throughout give the home genuine warmth, while new large picture windows fill the space with natural light without sacrificing its classic style.

The kitchen is the heart of the home: a chef-grade setup with a Monogram 6-burner gas range, Zephyr vent hood, quartz counters, and a large island, rare features for a home of this era. The single-story layout offers real flexibility, with two ensuite bedrooms ideal for guests, in-laws, or a growing family, plus a formal dining room and cozy breakfast nook for everyday living.

Major infrastructure work is already done: upgraded copper plumbing and gas lines, a new electrical panel, completed foundation repairs, and a 2024 commercial-grade AC unit, so you get the character of an established neighborhood without the guesswork of an unrenovated older home. A rare attached, side-entry 2-car garage is a true standout in Ryan Place, where most homes have no attached garage at all.

Just minutes from TCU, the Near Southside, and the Hospital District, Ryan Place is known for its strong sense of community, tree-lined streets, and neighborhood traditions like the Christmas Home Tour and Fourth of July Parade. This is a rare chance to own a piece of one of Fort Worth's most storied neighborhoods.
