A well-established, central community

Located about 9 miles east of Downtown Fort Worth along Interstate 30, Cooke’s Meadow is a neighborhood named for Jacob Cooke, who owned and operated a trading post and campground for teamsters back in the 1870s, and has been around since 1974, some 50 years ago. “Age means the neighborhood is well established with large, mature trees,” says Realtor Scott Andrews with Coldwell Banker Realty. Andrews has sold real estate in Greater Fort Worth for nearly four years now. “Cooke’s Meadow is close to several major highways without being troubled by the noise.” With large traditional homes and a location central to downtown, recreation and attractions, Cooke’s Meadow is a neighborhood with many bonuses.

Traditional or contemporary

Homes in Cooke’s Meadow tend to be traditional brick ranch-style houses with a good percentage of contemporary and Tudor-style homes mixed in. They sit upon rolling hills and feature neatly trimmed yards, well-maintained driveways and attached two-car garages. Some homes have pools to beat the Texas summer heat. “People take care of their properties in this neighborhood, even though there are no HOAs,” Andrews says. “They keep the grass mowed and the yards reasonably clean.” Buyers can expect to pay between $175,000 for a three-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch-style, while a contemporary five-bedroom, three-bathroom home starts around $500,000 and can list for as high as $640,000.
