Rare opportunity to own a spacious single-story home on approximately 1.5 acres in rapidly growing Forney, Texas! Offering nearly 3,000 square feet of living space, this versatile property features 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and the flexibility today's buyers are searching for.
Inside, you'll find an expansive floorplan with generous living areas, spacious bedrooms, and plenty of room for multi-generational living, a home office, hobby space, or growing households. The single-story design provides convenience and functionality while maximizing everyday comfort.
Outside is where this property truly shines. Situated on 1.5 acres, there is ample space for outdoor entertaining, gardening, recreational vehicles, equipment storage, or simply enjoying the privacy and freedom that comes with acreage living. The detached workshop is a tremendous bonus and includes space for 3 additional vehicles, making it ideal for contractors, hobbyists, car enthusiasts, small business owners, or anyone needing extra storage and workspace.
