Developing area with city views and trails

With pristine views of the Trinity River and sunsets behind the Fort Worth skyline, Scenic Bluff lives up to its name. This growing suburb is just 2 miles from downtown and hugs Interstate 35 West, giving residents an easy commute whether it be for work or fun. While this proximity to local attractions in Fort Worth is a selling point, Scenic Bluff also offers expansive green space at Riverside Park and local eateries along the popular Race Street. “There’s a ton of houses that are new construction and there’s new development here,” says Scott Sammons, a native Fort Worthian and Broker at Scott Sammons Real Estate with 16 years of experience selling in the area. “The trajectory of Scenic Bluff is definitely up-and-coming because of all the development, including new shops and restaurants.”

Modern ranch homes and older bungalows

Houses in Scenic Bluff are a mix of old and new. Most of the older homes are traditional-style bungalows with gabled roofs, two bedrooms and two bathrooms – many in need of updates – typically selling in the $125,000 to $225,000 range. "For the newer properties, modern ranch-style homes are common,” Sammon says. Other styles include recently built two-story Farmhouse Revivals with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, selling anywhere from $250,000 to $600,000. “I don’t see a lot of turnover or people moving out of the neighborhood,” Sammons says. “I see a lot of people shifting from an old house to a new house within the same neighborhood.” Sidewalks along these residential streets make it easy to walk to nearby shops and restaurants or take an evening stroll.

Local shops and eateries on Race Street

Proof of the development happening in Scenic Bluff can be found along Race Street, where murals and bright-colored facades make local boutiques and restaurants pop. Race Street Coffee is a popular spot to grab a morning pick-me-up, and they make an effort to bring people together in their small space. “They don’t have any internet access in there. They actually discourage people from coming in and just plugging into their laptops,” Sammons says. “They really encourage people to come in, hang out, talk and be intentional with their relationships.” Also on Race Street is Calisience, a restaurant that puts a modern twist on staples like Tacos Dorado and Ramen. Thanks to Chef Jacqueline Anaya, this establishment won the Tastemaker Awards’ Best New Restaurant in 2023. Nearby, Mamma Mia is the go-to spot for the Italian classics, located in a spacious historic brick building. For meals at home, a few neighborhood markets are peppered throughout Scenic Bluff, and Food City is just 2 miles north of town.

Colorful murals and delicious brews make Race Street Coffee a Scenic Bluff favorite.

Accessing Trinity Trails via Riverside Park

Residents can walk out of their front doors and access the Trinity Trails, a system of more than 100 miles of trails around Fort Worth. One of the main entrance points is within Scenic Bluff at Riverside Park, an open area of green space along the Trinity River with a playground and cityscape views of downtown. Just across the river adjacent to the Interstate 35 West ramp, Greenway Park also offers a play area and open field space that includes a baseball diamond.

Downtown Fort Worth festivals and events

A big draw to Scenic Bluff is its proximity to downtown Fort Worth, where the community gathers for different planned events throughout the year. The Main Street Arts Festival in April is the largest and most attended event downtown, showcasing thousands of artists and musicians alongside food vendors and an artisan craft market. National Day of the American Cowboy is held every July at the Fort Worth Stockyards, celebrating the area’s history through parades, rodeos and live music. On any given day, Sundance Square teems with shoppers and diners walking to and from the shopping mall, restaurants and bars. Located so close to the action of downtown and at the noisy intersection of major highways, Scenic Bluff has a 7 out of 10 crime score according to CapIndex, which is higher than the national average of 4.

Fort Worth public schools

Students living in Scenic Bluff can begin their public school education with a 14-1 student-teacher ratio at Oakhurst Elementary School, which Niche grades a B-minus and boasts a Japanese Peace Garden that the students helped build. They can then advance to Riverside Middle School, which receives a C-minus from Niche. Older learners can attend Amon Carter-Riverside High School, which Niche grades a C-plus and ranks among the top half of Best High Schools for Athletes in Texas.

The school was renamed in 1941 to Amon Carter-Riverside to honor a Ft. Worth civic leader.
