Our Ryan Place clients wanted dark and heavy rather than light and airy, and they gave us the room to do it. The primary bath came back in green and gray tile with a freestanding tub, wall-mounted fittings, and fluted sconces. One of the kids' baths we left exactly as we found it, because its original tile was better than anything we would have specified in its place.
What We See in Ryan Place Houses
This neighborhood took four decades to finish. 259 of its houses date from the 1920s and 211 from the 1940s, so two neighbors twenty years apart in age sit on one street. What that costs you is behind the walls: how a house was framed, how it was wired, and what it was set on all changed in between. The lots run about 55 feet across and the middle house is 1,691 square feet.
The Bathrooms Ryan Place Asks Us For
On the older houses a primary bath is usually built rather than remodeled, because the plan never set one aside. Hall and kids baths are the steadiest work, since one bathroom off the hall is still doing everything in a lot of these houses. Small bathroom remodels are the version of that job on the narrower lots.

Why Ryan Place Homeowners Choose Us
Some of what is already in your bathroom is worth keeping, and telling you so costs us the work of replacing it. We did that here: an original tiled bath stayed, and the budget went to the rooms that needed it.

Schedule a Free ConsultationIs Ryan Place a historic district?
No, and the detail is worth having, because plenty of people are told otherwise. Elizabeth Boulevard is a historic district: one street of 44 houses inside the neighborhood, and the first Fort Worth ever designated. Roughly 85 percent of Ryan Place carries no historic overlay at all, and on Elizabeth Boulevard the guidelines exempt interiors in so many words.
Our neighbor's house looks like ours. Why would our bathrooms price differently?
Because they are probably twenty years apart. The 1940s account for 211 houses here and the 1920s for 259, so one block can hold both, and the two were framed differently, wired differently, and set on the ground differently. We work out which one you own before anything gets priced.
