Overland Grove — Room to Grow. Reasons to Stay

Welcome to Overland Grove—where community living comes to life in the heart of Forney, TX. With homes from the mid $300s across three collections — Classic, Prestige, and Estates — this thoughtfully designed planned community offers an impressive lineup of new single-family homes in a scenic setting just east of Dallas.

There's a particular kind of morning that only happens at Overland Grove. Students head off on foot — actually on foot, because O.B. Johnson Elementary sits right inside the neighborhood. You take the long way back along the trail, past the fishing pier where a neighbor is already casting a line, past the orchard where the peaches are almost ready. By the time you're home on your covered patio with a second cup of coffee, you've been outside for twenty minutes and you never left the community.

That's Overland Grove: a 500-plus-homesite planned community in Forney, Texas, built around the idea that the best parts of your day shouldn't require a drive.

The amenities aren't an afterthought — they're the whole point

The Grove Amenity Center anchors it all with a large resort-style swimming pool, shaded cabanas, a screened patio, outdoor grilling stations, an open lawn, and high-speed Wi-Fi throughout. Beyond it, the neighborhood unfolds into walking and jogging trails, pocket parks, a multi-age play structure, a dog park, community gardens, self-pick orchards, a baseball backstop, a disc golf course, and a catch-and-release fishing pond and pier. Saturdays fill themselves.

Your school is your neighbor

Overland Grove is proudly part of the highly regarded Forney ISD, and O.B. Johnson Elementary was built right within the community — K through 4th grade, minutes from your front door. Students continue on to Rhea Intermediate, Warren Middle School, and Forney High School.

Homes with room to stretch

Choose from three distinct collections — Classic, Prestige, and Estates — with one- and two-story plans ranging from roughly 1,859 to over 3,200 square feet. Open-concept layouts, designer finishes, and options that fit how you actually live: three-bay garages, covered patios, private studies, upstairs lofts, main-level bedrooms, and generous homesites.

Downtown Forney is minutes away, and it's the good kind of small-town

Local restaurants, antique shops, coffee, and a calendar of year-round events on a walkable historic square — the sort of place you bring visitors, then find yourself returning to on a Tuesday.

And Dallas? Closer than you'd think

With Highway 80 and I-20 right there, downtown Dallas, major employment hubs, and Metroplex entertainment are an easy commute — while you come home to something quieter, greener, and entirely your own.
