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 with 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. Wolf 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!
