4900 Ridge Circle, Benbrook, TX 76126

One story, two living quarters and a private courtyard at the end of a gated cul-de-sac in Reata West at Team Ranch. The arched wood front door opens to a covered flagstone breezeway rather than straight into the house. Beyond it is a courtyard lawn shaded by a mature live oak, with a covered flagstone patio and ceiling fan made for morning coffee or dinner outside.

On one side of the breezeway, French doors lead to the casita: a bedroom with full bath, walk-in closet and its own air-conditioning unit. It works as guest quarters, a studio or a home office, with its own entry off the courtyard. On the other side, a leaded-glass door with transom opens to the main house.

Wood floors, crown molding and a brick-and-stone corner fireplace set the tone in the living area, which opens to a white kitchen with island, breakfast bar, walk-in pantry and skylight. The dining area is lined with tall windows and plantation shutters looking onto the courtyard.

The primary suite has a tray ceiling, a bath with garden tub, separate shower and double vanity, and a study off the suite that can serve as an office, art studio, music or listening room, or extra closet space. A second bedroom and full bath sit on the opposite side of the home.

Round porthole windows add character throughout. A pet door opens to fenced side runs beyond the courtyard and behind the house. A side-entry two-car garage and a laundry room with cabinets and counter space round out the home, and two of the neighborhood's guest parking pads are steps away. HOA dues of about $1,000 a year cover the gates, private streets, perimeter walls and common-area landscaping. 2,446 sq ft per tax records, including the 298 sq ft casita. Fort Worth ISD.
