Property Description
Step into a piece of Fort Worth history with the MA Benton House, a beautifully restored Victorian-era home located on a 4-lot corner in the heart of Fairmount. Built in 1898, this residence stands as one of the oldest homes in Fort Worth & is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as well as recognized as a Texas Historic Landmark. The home has been lovingly remodeled with close attention to detail. The wraparound porch with detailed molding, framed by a white picket fence & lush green lawn, evokes nostalgic summer days spent sipping lemonade. Inside, original hardwoods, soaring ceilings, transom windows & intricate architectural details reflect the home’s historic charm. Just off the entry, the living room is filled with natural light & is grounded by a wood burning fireplace. On the opposite side, a stately study features floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, complete with a rolling ladder & fireplace. Original light fixtures glow with timeless charm, while the updated kitchen offers the best of both worlds—ss appliances, Carrara marble counters & a butcher block island that complements the historic aesthetic. Adding to the modern luxuries, the family room off the kitchen makes the perfect spot for relaxing, while a nearby mudroom serves as central hub for study, storage or organizing daily life. The first-floor primary suite offers privacy & comfort with an ensuite bathroom, double sinks, separate soaking tub, shower & large walk-in closet. Upstairs, is a game room, climbing wall, 2 additional bedrooms with quaint reading nooks & a full bath. For guests or extended family, a guest house has its own bedroom, living area, kitchen & bath. A detached 2-car garage sits conveniently on the corner, while the expansive yard offers endless possibilities: a tree swing, space for croquet matches or even a chicken coop or workshop. Perfectly located in Central Fort Worth, this property is more than a residence—it’s a storybook home filled with history, heart & heritage.
