A Jewish congregation won a victory in court on Thursday over where the group will worship.
A judge denied a request to put a stop to religious services held at a North Dallas synagogue that's also a home.
One of the synagogue's neighbors, David Schneider, believes the location depreciates the value of his home by up to $50,000.
The synagogue's rabbi, Yakkov Rich, and his congregation were pleased with Thursday's outcome.
"We are very happy," said Justin Butterfield with the Liberty Institute, the group that stepped in to defend the synagogue. "We feel that the judge was really fair, but the evidence just showed the congregation really fits into the community."
Neighbors have been vocal about not wanting the Jewish congregation holding service in the 3,500-square foot-home. Especially Schneider, who sued, claiming his home has lost value, and saying parking has become a big issue.
Schneider declined to talk to FOX 4 about the ruling, but in a statement said, "It is now undisputed in the court record that Congregation Toras Chaim is conducting 75+ services per month in a neighborhood with Residential Only' deed restrictions. With over a thousand persons coming and going per month, this is far in excess of any reasonable expectation my family had for a quiet neighborhood."
Documents filed on behalf of the congregation say the house still fits deed restrictions because people actually live there.
It also claims the homeowner's association is not enforcing the rules equally on all homes, and has dragged this case out for the three years.
The congregation believes shutting down services at the house would violate the Texas Religious Freedom Act. The judge took their side, and the decision couldn't have come at a better time.

Medelim, Portugal (JTA) In the center of the medieval Portuguese town of Medelim, two newlyweds in Sephardic wedding clothes are serenaded by a musical ensemble performing Ladino music.
Nearby, several members of the knights Templar march in white capes and chain mail while a harlequin on stilts prances around carrying a pole topped with a Star of David.
The scene may have been familiar to someone living in Medelim 500 years ago, when the town had a large population of Sephardic Jews. But today there are no Jews in Medelim, their memory evoked solely by actors hired to play period roles during the municipally organized Jewish and Christian Passover, an annual cultural event held for the second time last month.
Occurring just months after both Portugal and Spain introduced legislation to naturalize Sephardic Jews, the festival is part of a growing embrace of Iberian Jewish heritage. Both countries have seen a surge in festivals celebrating Jewish culture, often timed to Jewish holidays such as Passover and Sukkot.
In Portugal, there is much ignorance on how important Jews have been to our cultural roots, so events that familiarize people with Jewish traditions are welcome, said Jose Antonio Oliveira, a geography lecturer at the Lusophone University of Humanities and Technologies in Lisbon who participated in a panel discussion at the Medelim event.
But there is also a financial aspect to the embrace of Jewish heritage. Local officials hope the events will raise the towns profile and attract tourists.
Medelims tourism department hired Mor Karbasi, an Israel-born rising star on the world music scene, to perform in Ladino. Kosher wine, cheese and matzah were on sale in several stalls of the medieval-themed market set up around the festival compound. A boutique hotel called Sefarad had its grand opening.
