1257 Herring Drive Welcome to 1257 Herring Drive, a beautifully designed, never-lived-in new home in Forney's sought-after Gateway Parks community, where a charming covered front porch invites you inside to discover a versatile open-concept floor plan filled with natural light. Just off the foyer, a flexible room offers the perfect space for a formal dining area or home office. In contrast, a main-floor bedroom with an adjacent full bath and a powder room provides exceptional convenience for guests. The heart of the home unfolds into a bright, modern kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large island, and a generous pantry, all seamlessly connected to the dining area and family room with direct patio access for effortless indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, a spacious loft anchors the private quarters, leading to a luxurious primary suite that boasts a spa-like bath, dual sinks, a walk-in shower, and two walk-in closets; three additional bedrooms each include their own walk-in closet, two sharing a full bath, and the fourth enjoys a dedicated bathroom, while a well-placed laundry room completes the upper level. Finished with luxury vinyl plank flooring in the main living areas and plush carpet in the bedrooms, this home is minutes from top-rated Forney ISD schools, shopping, and dining. It grants you access to resort-style community amenities, including a sparkling pool, splash pad, clubhouse, fitness center, and walking trails-offering an unmatched blend of comfort, style, and suburban convenience. We accept affordable housing vouchers as well.
