Whether you’re a Fort Worth native or brand-new to town, chances are you’re on the hunt for the next great place. And we get it — a really great apartment is your own little piece of heaven.

Enter: Wayfare - Cibolo Hills, Fort Worth’s latest single-story luxury apartment development, which is technically the new kid on the block, but punches way above its weight when it comes to amenities.

From single-story floor plans (read: no loud upstairs neighbors or carrying things up a million flights of stairs), to attached one- or two-car garages with tons of storage space and built-in 220-volt electric vehicle chargers, Wayfare is a community designed to make your life easier with every upscale amenity one could want.

See what’s coming so you can start planning your new home (or at least daydream about it).

Exclusive amenities designed for modern life

If you’ve accepted the fact that you’ll probably just have to street park forever, then we have good news: Every Wayfare apartment includes a one- or two-car garage with a one-story, private entryway into the home, plus — get this — electric car charging outlets.

Fun fact: Wayfare is the only community in Texas that offers built-in EV chargers in every unit — so it’s a pretty special place.

Other amenities include:
  • No stairs (for easy moving in, unloading groceries, and accessibility for adults of all ages)
  • Resort-style saltwater pool
  • 24/7 fitness center
  • Stainless steel appliances and granite countertops
  • In-unit washer/dryer and walk-in closets
  • Valet trash and on-site serviceman

That’s a wrap, folks — No. 6 seed TCU Men’s Basketball fell (84-81) to No. 3 seed Gonzaga on Sunday night, ending the Horned Frogs’ attempt at the NCAA Championship and the team’s 2022-2023 season.

Let’s take a look at some of this season’s stats:
  • Wins and losses: 22-13
  • Ranking: No. 5 in the Big 12
  • Average points per game: 75.2
The season’s top scorers:
  • Mike Miles, Jr. | Junior guard | 482 points
  • Emanuel Miller | Senior forward | 395 points
  • Damion Baugh | Senior guard | 365 points
  • JaKobe Coles | Sophomore forward | 300 points
  • Chuck O’Bannon, Jr. | Red shirt senior forward | 271 points
This is the second year in a row that TCU lost in the March Madness Round of 32, last year falling 85-80 to Arizona.

Hopefully, the third time’s the charm, and head coach Jamie Dixon — who will stick around through the 2027-2028 season — can lead the team to its first Sweet 16 appearance since 1968.

Riff, Ram, Bah, Zoo.
