Wave your hand farewell to the last commercial tract of land at the Clearfork West development in southwest Fort Worth. It's been grabbed by a hand surgeon.

According to a release, a $7.9 million two-story medical office building is in the works, with 50 percent leased to Dr. Nathan Lesley, a noted orthopedic hand surgeon based in Fort Worth.

That leaves 10,100 square feet still available for lease. You could be mere feet away from the handy Dr. Lesley.

The project will be a short drive from the Fort Worth medical district, where Lesley has his current office in the Fort Worth Hand Center.

SkyWalker Property Partners, an Arlington-based investment group, has already begun work on the site. President Gary Walker says they were originally looking for a property to repurpose before they decided to build from scratch.

"We were fortunate to be able to acquire this site, which is an ideal location for his expanding practice," Walker says.

Lesley signed a 10-year lease for the entire second level to house his practice and physical therapy clinic, The Hand & Upper Extremity Institute, which will be a one-stop shop for all your hand needs, not to mention your upper extremities.

The architect is 97w, a local design firm, and Frost Bank is the project lender.

While the area has become known for the Shops at Clearfork and the new Neiman Marcus, there are other medical providers nearby, including endodontics, pediatric dentistry, the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Institute, and Sanctuary Yoga Room.

They all sit within the historic boundary of Edwards Ranch, the 7,000-acre spread and largest family-owned holding in the metro's southwest corridor.

Cassco, the Edwards family's development arm since 1954, has 850 acres left to develop. That includes 270 acres earmarked for Clearfork on the northern bank of the Trinity River; and 320 for Riverhills on the southern side.

Clearfork is master-planned for 3.2 million sf of upscale office, retail, and restaurant space, 2,500 multifamily units, and green space stretching for miles along the riverfront. Riverhills is a high-end, five-phase development of single-family estate homes.

The Willow Wood Horse Farm in Grapevine is on the market for $7.2 million.

A stunning 10-acre property in North Texas that looks like it was made for an ultra modern cowboy family has just hit the market for $7.2 million.

Called the Willow Wood Horse Farm, this one-of-a-kind equestrian paradise is located on West Kimball Avenue in Grapevine, about 30 miles northeast from downtown Fort Worth.

The ranch is an extraordinary combination of elegant and thoughtful modern design paired with all of the practicality required of a fully functioning farm.

According to the listing, which is held by Burgher-Ray Ranch Group and managed by David Burgher and Harlan Ray, the farm includes several fenced pastures, an enclosed and insulated shop storage building with concrete flooring, and a seven-stall horse barn.

A covered and irrigated riding arena is attached to the barn, every stall has its own turnout, and six of the stalls are 12 feet by 12 feet wide, and the seventh is designated as a foaling stall. An additional turnout for grazing is located adjacent to the barn, as well as a training pen.

But the focal point of the entire estate is the 4,353-square-foot, three-story primary residence that sits at the highest point of the gently sloped property. The home was custom-designed and completed in 2022, featuring an exterior made of metal cladding, concrete, durable ipe hardwood, and glass.

Upon entering the front door, guests will notice unparalleled views that lead through the home's living areas and into the 3,000-square-foot back deck, past the 80-foot-long saltwater swimming pool, and out toward the pastures.

The chef's kitchen is outfitted with luxurious Gaggenau appliances, such as a steam convection oven, a conventional convection oven, a coffee machine, stove, dishwasher, a separate paneled refrigerator and freezer, and a warming drawer. A half bathroom and full butler's pantry is located to the side of the kitchen, which is equipped with a prep space and a dishwasher.

Additional features of the home include:

Koi ponds located on either side of the main door that welcome guests to the home
An open concept living space that contains the living room, kitchen, and dining rooms
A primary suite with a spacious walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom
Two additional bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms
Soft opening/closing doors in all main bedrooms
Dynaudio speakers installed throughout the home
Geo-thermal heating/cooling system

A custom-built metal spiraling staircase connects all three levels of the home. The second floor contains a viewing area with floor-to-ceiling windows and access to the covered porch and rooftop deck. The lower level leads to an "acoustically balanced" underground home theater featuring eight-foot concert walls, Dynaudio speakers, an Ember Audio sound system, a 250-bottle wine cooler, and a powder bathroom. The listing notes that this area could be converted into a storm cellar.

A detached three-car garage is located next to the home, which contains one EV charging station and two additional outlets for charging. Discreetly designed solar panels are hidden on top of the garage, which are capable of powering the entire residence.

The horse barn, irrigation system, and stock pond all run off of a water well located on the property, while the primary residence uses city water with a filtration system.

"Situated in the heart of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, just minutes from Lake Grapevine, Southlake, and an easy commute to DFW International Airport, this property affords someone the ability to have all the comforts of the city, while living just slightly removed from it all," the listing says.
