A community with amenities 18 miles from Fort Worth
Splashes in the pool, neighborhood events and well-regarded schools make Lakewood a fast-growing exurb of Fort Worth, just 18 miles west of the city. The spotlight in this rural setting is on Morningstar, a meticulously planned community offering a resort-style living experience within reasonable proximity to the Metroplex. Lakewood's charm lies in its new traditional homes, featuring two community pools, a clubhouse, and a playground—all within a short stroll. With well-regarded schools, annual events and convenient access to shopping and dining, Lakewood is increasingly becoming a favored choice for residents. "It's really the location," says Elsa Usrey, a Sales Assistant with Impression Homes, a builder in the area. "Along with the great amenities and its sleek look, it's a popular spot to be right now."
