Riff, ram, bah, zoo.<\/p>\n

Lickety, lickety, zoo, zoo!<\/p>\n

You Texas Christian University Horned Frogs know what that means, I guess. The rest of us just sit in the stands, wondering what it\u2019s about<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Frog faithful who understand fearing the frog and loving purple should pay attention to the house on the market at 2516 Shirley Ave. in Fort Worth. It\u2019s walking distance to the TCU campus, making this a great house for getting to the tailgates early with zero parking problems. It\u2019s a popular part of Cowtown because it\u2019s where a lot of people want to be.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe best part of this house is its amazing location,\u201d said Realtor Virginia Durham with Briggs Freeman Sotheby\u2019s International. \u201cYou can walk to campus, you\u2019re super close to Colonial Country Club, and you\u2019re near University Drive. You\u2019re in the heart of everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

Durham, who has the house listed at $1.1 million, says this classic Tudor has as much charm as TCU\u2019s mascot<\/a>, coach, and cheerleaders combined.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has so much charm,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s got loads of English Tudor charm.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"The living area comes with lots of natural light, built-ins, and a fireplace.<\/p>\n

Game Ready<\/p>\n

Built in 1931, the house has gone through some transformations in the decades since then. Although the beautiful hardwood floors remain, other things like the home\u2019s various systems that we love more than football for their modern efficiency, have been updated. The bright-and-white kitchen has been re-imagined, outfitted with stainless steel countertops. The primary bathroom\u2019s upgrades include a walk-in shower.<\/p>\n

On the first floor of this two-story house, the living room centers around a fireplace. There\u2019s a sunlit study and a dining room with tall ceilings and expansive windows. The primary suite is also located downstairs with convenient access to a screened-in porch that\u2019s perfect for morning coffee.<\/p>\n

Finding a spot to practice yoga, paint a canvas, or pot a plant is easy in this house. An enclosed sunroom could be a sitting room or office, a screened-in porch looks good for plants or pets, and a glassed-in porch off the kitchen might become an extra office or art studio. This house offers plenty of places to pursue hobbies, work quietly, or read a bestseller.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s got a lot of little spaces to do whatever you need to do,\u201d Durham said.<\/p>\n

\"\"Stainless steel countertops would look great with purple serving dishes on game days.<\/p>\n

\"\"Original hardwood floors add to the charm.<\/p>\n

\"\"The remodeled bathroom would look great with TCU purple towels.<\/p>\n

Unbeatable<\/p>\n

Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms share a stylishly updated bathroom, offering a comfortable setup for guests, teens, or an out-of-sight workspace. An oversized laundry room, measuring a whopping 16 feet by 10 feet, is also upstairs.<\/p>\n

The garage is detached and oversized, leaving plenty of room for pets or maybe a post-game party. The cars, though, can always stay in the garage on game days, because this house is just one block off Stadium Drive and an 11-minute walk to Amon G. Carter Stadium.<\/p>\n

The location, Durham says, is simply unbeatable. Are TCU\u2019s teams? Time will tell.<\/p>\n

Rah, rah, TCU.<\/p>\n

Realtor Virginia Durham with Briggs Freeman Sotheby\u2019s International has listed 2516 Shirley Ave. in Fort Worth for $1.1 million.<\/a><\/p>\n
