About this home
Located in unincorporated Kaufman County with NO HOA, this exceptional farmhouse estate sits on 3.75 elevated acres at over 400 feet above sea level, ideally positioned between Heath, McLendon-Chisholm, and Forney. The loan is a VA assumable at 2.125%! The setting offers rare privacy, open space, and sweeping long-range views—without sacrificing convenience. Built in 1985 with a level of craftsmanship rarely found today, the home features antique brick sourced from Palmer, Corsicana Cherry Red, Ferris, and Dallas, solid redwood siding, substantial all-wood construction, and oversized structural components. Over the past eight years, the property has undergone extensive, thoughtful renovations with no expense spared, all while preserving its original character. Inside, solid colonial walnut hardwood floors, wool carpeting, custom cabinetry, Baldwin Reserve hardware, upgraded electrical systems, and carefully designed lighting create warmth and quality throughout. The living room is anchored by a working wood-burning stove. The fully renovated kitchen (2018) offers soapstone and quartz countertops, a custom solid walnut island, antique brick flooring, expanded pantry, KitchenAid professional appliances, six-burner gas cooktop supplied by an underground propane tank, double ovens, copper bar sink with Brizo fixtures, reverse-osmosis filtration, and a remotely vented hood system. The private primary suite includes a spa-style bath renovation with heated tile floors, heated towel rack, backlit mirrors, a large walk-in shower with dual heads, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and redesigned closets. Outdoors, reclaimed Route 66 antique brick driveway, copper gutters and lighting, flagstone patios, mature landscaping, and open pasture views frame breathtaking Kaufman County sunsets enjoyed from the back porch. Receipts available. A rare opportunity to own a meticulously built and extensively renovated acreage estate with freedom, elevation, and timeless appeal....
