Dream fruition comes to
Dallas family builds home overlooking Lake Tenkiller
R
ob and Joan Forsyth’s home overlooking Lake Tenkiller culminates a 25-year dream. Joan Forsyth said her family owns 36 acres on the lake. Her grandfather bought the land in 1942. “My parents live right down the road,” she said. Meanwhile, Rob and Joan Forsyth lived in Dallas with
two sons. Rob Forsyth, a vice president with AT&T, said the family has been visiting the property for 25 years. Eventually, the Forsyths bought eight and a half acres by the Sizemore Landing Public Use Area. They built a 4,200-square-foot house, with a 1,000-square-foot detached apartment at the end of a winding half-mile road.
