The Homesteads offers wide-open skies, generous homesites, and a pace of life that makes front-porch sunsets and weekend projects feel entirely doable—yet you’re close enough to the energy of Dallas for big-city dining, arts, and pro sports. Daily needs and small-town conveniences are just minutes away in Forney, Crandall, and Kaufman, with the outdoor draw of Lake Tawakoni and the wetlands of the Trinity River corridor nearby. Hike, bike, or launch a boat at Lake Tawakoni State Park through the official Texas Parks and Wildlife page for Lake Tawakoni State Park, or explore nature programs and birding at the John Bunker Sands Wetland Center. County services and records are easy to access via the county government that serves Kaufman County.
Families appreciate strong school options, with zones that can include Forney ISD and Kaufman ISD, both known for updated campuses, career and technical pathways, and competitive athletics. Higher education is close at Trinity Valley Community College – Kaufman, and everyday healthcare is anchored by Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Kaufman. Housing spans custom builds, modern farmhouses, and workshop-ready properties, ideal for hobbyists, equestrians, or anyone who wants room to grow. When you want boutique shopping or community festivals, neighboring Terrell adds more to the weekend calendar, while The Homesteads’ quiet roads make evening strolls and starry skies part of the routine.
