Believe it or not, but there once was a time when the bustling neighborhood of Montserrat in Fort Worth was just pasture land. I know because I was there.
In a million years I never would have imagined that the privately guarded neighborhood would quickly become one of Fort Worth’s distinctive residential developments.
The success of Montserrat over the past few years has left residents, builders and real estate agents asking for many more planned developments to help satiate the thirsty need of locals and relocating out-of-state buyers alike.

Until those new areas are developed, buyers looking for estate homes with amazing amenities and scenic views will have to wait for existing Montserrat homes to hit the open market.
Fortunately, one just did.
A Montserrat Mansion That Packs a Punch
The five-bedroom, five-and-one-half bathroom home of 5,376 square feet located in Montserrat is a Mediterranean-influenced home that packs a punch.
The home allows for all that a homeowner can imagine — both inside and outside the home.
Inside the home you will see expected luxury items in every room. Beautiful sand-and-finish hardwood floors, exquisite materials, high-end appliances, and designer fixtures are found throughout the home.
The kitchen features marble counters, a high-end gas cooktop, plenty of storage areas, and opens to the inviting family room.
The primary suite is also elegant and enticing with a deep soaking tub, designer fixtures, and a closet that will excite even the finickiest of clothes horses.
Outdoor Luxuries
Especially with this new COVID world we live in, outdoor amenities and luxuries are at an all-time high for demand. You will not be disappointed with what this home has to offer.
Spend countless hours under the shade of the deep patio regardless if it’s hot, cold, dry, or raining. The view from the outdoor living area spans the pool and spa, another living area under a pergola, and of course the all-important sport court.
When you get tired of relaxing, being in the pool, or under the shade, you can get a good sweat and develop your basketball skills, or have some friends over and get a friendly hoops half-court tournament started.
John Zimmerman of Compass Real Estate has listed this Montserrat mansion at 4668 Palencia Drive for $1.8 million.
