5545 Wedgwood

Quarter acre corner lot in Wedgwood, no HOA, and a backyard most newer Fort Worth homes can’t touch.

This 1955 single story brick home has 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a layout that feels bigger than its 1,170 square feet. The front porch has that classic midcentury look with angled slat columns and big shade trees out front. Inside, the living room runs almost 25 feet with a wall of front windows that keep it bright all day. Luxury vinyl plank flooring carries through the main living areas. The dining room has white wainscoting and a brass chandelier, and it sits right between the living room and kitchen so everything flows. The kitchen is crisp and clean with white cabinets, granite counters, open wood shelving, stainless dishwasher, built-in wall oven and a pantry. Bedrooms are on their own side of the house. The primary has an ensuite bath with a walk-in shower, and the second bedroom is right next to an updated full bath with a subway tile tub surround and new vanity. Then there’s the laundry room. At almost 21 by 8 feet it doubles as a mudroom, craft space, workshop or extra storage, with its own door to the yard. Out back is where this one really stands out. Wide open grass, mature trees, a wood deck for sitting in the shade and a storage shed, all behind a privacy fence. Plenty of room for a garden, a pool down the road, dogs or kids to run. Parking includes a covered carport plus a one car garage off the side street. The big stuff has already been handled too: foundation repair with a transferable warranty and windows replaced in 2019. Fort Worth ISD. Quick access to I-20, Granbury Road and Chisholm Trail Parkway puts Hulen, the Medical District, TCU and downtown Fort Worth within easy reach. A great fit for first time buyers, downsizers or anyone who wants a little land without leaving the city.
