Building in Cartwright Ranch
Cartwright Ranch is a 1- to 5-acre acreage community along Cartwright Road on the east side of Weatherford, inside Weatherford ISD. It is one of the rare communities in the area where you can have meaningful acreage and still be ten minutes from the Historic Parker County Courthouse Square and Holland Lake Park.
Open Prairie has built across most of the established Weatherford addresses for thirty years, including projects in and around Cartwright Ranch. The community has a mix of newer estate builds and older acreage holdings - we work on both, and have several whole-home renovation projects in the area for families who loved the location but had outgrown the original house.
Permitting runs through Parker County and, for lots inside the Weatherford city limits, the City of Weatherford. We know the local plat reviewers and inspectors by first name.
