Dating back to 1873 and proudly listed on the Historic Register named: The McKellar Home. Spans almost 3 acres on a secluded street within the Forney area. Sprawling acreage w/ mature trees is a true Grand Estate. Preserved is the period; hand crafted wood molding, leaded glass doors, Tiffany style-stained glass windows, oak inlaid hardwood flooring, fantastically tiled fireplaces and many of them a true gem. The property has undergone meticulous renovations to seamlessly integrate modern amenities while preserving its historical charm. Commercial range, freshly renovated guest house with kitchen. Recent upgrades include interior replaced plumbing, electrical, & mechanical systems. The grand entry stairs with a keyhole feature, soaring ceilings, and hardwood flooring contribute to the interior's spacious feel. This residence seamlessly combines the best of both worlds, large salt water pool, large basketball court with scoreboard, gazebo with sitting area and so much more!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
