Community Description

Welcome to Dowdy Ferry, a new home community coming soon to Dallas, Texas. This new community offers modern floor plans, practical designs, and an ideal location for homeowners looking to stay connected to everything the Dallas-Fort Worth area has to offer. Conveniently located on Dowdy Ferry Road, this community offers easy access to major highways and Downtown Dallas, placing homeowners near employment centers, premier shopping, dining, entertainment, and everyday conveniences throughout the city.

Designed to meet the needs of a variety of homebuyers, Dowdy Ferry will feature five thoughtfully designed two story floor plans ranging from approximately 1,381 to 1,667 square feet, including The Groves, The Hondo, The Ingram, The Jefferson, and The Naples. With 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and 2 car garages, these homes offer flexibility for first time homebuyers, growing families, and those looking for additional space. Open concept interiors bring together the kitchen, dining, and living areas to support daily routines and entertaining, while select floor plans include covered patios, game rooms, walk in closets, and flex spaces that provide added functionality.

In addition to its convenient location, Dowdy Ferry offers access to the natural beauty of Southeast Dallas. The nearby Great Trinity Forest provides opportunities to explore trails, green spaces, and outdoor recreation while remaining close to the amenities and attractions of the city.

Students are anticipated to attend schools within Dallas ISD, one of the largest school districts in Texas. Homebuyers should verify school assignments and zoning information directly with the district, as boundaries are subject to change.

Whether you're searching for your first home or looking for additional space in a growing area of Dallas, Dowdy Ferry offers modern home designs, practical layouts, and a location that keeps you connected to work, recreation, and everyday life.

    "I have lived here for 12 years. No trick or treaters have ever came to my door. Commute is fairly easy. I-20, I-175, I-635 is near by. You can commute by car/truck. Walking and riding bicycles is pretty dangerous. There is a Boxing gym near by."

    "Everyone has a dog. Everyone picks up the poop. If you don’t pick up the poop, you will be shamed. Also keep your dog on a leash and leave the cats alone. Unless you are at the park and your dog is well behaved. "
