Soaking Tub Envy

North Dallas ranch feels so fresh thanks to this pro designing duo

Diana Oates
Jul 28, 2016 | 10:30 am

It's hard not to marvel at the craftsmanship exhibited in the remodeled ranch located at 3930 Northaven Rd., in the Midway Hills Terrace section of North Dallas. Listed for $749,900, this four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom, 3,401-square-foot home has been given a major facelift by not one but two professional designers.

From the standalone soaking tub and the double showers in the master to the large island framed by luxury lighting in the kitchen, we could hardly believe that the owners would want to sell after doing such an impressive remodel.

But after a little research, we discovered that the home was actually remodeled to sell by the talented husband-wife team behind Winterhaus Properties. Known for their impressive house flips in both Dallas and Richardson, you aren't going to find cookie-cutter finishes in any property with their name on it.

"They always have people wanting them to do their personal homes after seeing their properties," Ebby Halliday listing agent Jill Jones-Wiese says. "They remodel as if they are moving in themselves, with their four kids. They have an obvious passion for both design and function."

Speaking of kids, this home boasts all of the essentials — lots of space, open floor plan, big backyard — for a fantastic family home. Plus, it’s in proximity to some of Dallas’ finest private schools, such as Jesuit, Hockaday, St. Mark’s, and Ursuline.

The main thing that the photos of the home don't really communicate is that there are four living areas, which are currently being used as a formal living room, den, sun room, and game room. So, even if accommodating a growing family isn't a priority of yours, perhaps entertaining is.

This home at 3930 Northaven Rd., in the Midway Hills Terrace section of North Dallas, is listed at $749,900.

Retail boom in fast-growing Forney fueled by massive mixed-use development

The Village at Gateway is a booming retail complex in Forney.

Frisco's not the only North Texas city experiencing a retail explosion right now. Forney's getting in on the action, too.

A Dick’s Sporting Goods store will join EVO Entertainment and other new tenants at The Village at Gateway mixed-use development in the booming Kaufman County city, according to a release.

Dick’s hasn’t announced an opening date for the 60,000-square-foot store. The retailer operates more than 10 locations in DFW.

The 82,000-square-foot EVO location will be an all-in-one entertainment venue. Think Dave & Buster’s meets Alamo Drafthouse. (Fun facts: Dave & Buster’s headquarters is in Coppell, while Alamo Drafthouse is based in Austin.)

The Forney venue will feature:

  • Nine movie theaters, including one IMAX auditorium and two EVX auditoriums
  • A full-service bar and restaurant
  • An upper-level lounge area
  • Event and conference spaces
  • 22 bowling lanes
  • More than 125 arcade games
  • Rock-climbing walls
  • A multilevel ropes course
  • Bumper cars
  • Laser tag

An opening date for the EVO location hasn’t been set, although EVO previously said it would be ready this fall. It’ll be the first North Texas venue operated by Austin-based EVO after locations in Addison, Southlake, and Waxahachie rebranded as Hooky Entertainment under new ownership.

Construction of the EVO venue kicked off in January.

Developed by Dallas-based StreetLevel Investments, the Village at Gateway also will welcome other new tenants such as:

  • Luna Grill, a Mediterranean restaurant (October opening date).
  • Forney Nail Bar (October opening date).
  • Handel’s Ice Cream (future opening date).
  • Costa Vida, a Mexican restaurant (future opening date).

“The Village at Gateway is an exciting milestone for Forney, bringing new jobs, shopping, and dining opportunities while continuing to strengthen our local economy,” Forney Mayor Jason Roberson says in the release.

Tenants already open at the 152-acre development include:

  • Target
  • Home Depot
  • H-E-B
  • BJ’s Wholesale Club
  • Five Below
  • Burlington
  • Ross Dress for Less
  • James Avery
  • Bath & Body Works

“Forney is one of the fastest‑growing communities in the Dallas area, with exceptional schools, strong employment, and a rapidly expanding population — yet it has long been underserved when it comes to convenient, high‑quality retail and dining,” says Brian Murphy, managing principal at StreetLevel Investments.

From April 2020 to July 2025, Forney’s population soared by 79 percent to nearly 41,700, making it one of the fastest-growing cities in North Texas and the U.S.

A report released in January 2025 by OpenDoor revealed Forney’s 75126 ZIP code claimed the No. 6 ranking as the hottest U.S. housing market in 2024 for the second year in a row. It was the only North Texas ZIP code to make the top 10.

Forney failed to crack the top 10 in OpenDoor’s 2026 report, though. The only DFW ZIP code appearing in the latest top 10 is McKinney’s 75071, landing at No. 8.
