Gated and guarded Frisco community
One of Frisco's older neighborhoods, Starwood is a luxury gated community with 24/7 security guards. The established neighborhood has always stood out in Frisco for its large custom homes, highly-rated schools and access to business and entertainment districts. "It's pretty iconic. Some athletes and movie stars would purchase homes in that area for a while," says Jay Newton, a Realtor with Ebby Halliday Realty. "Now, it's still a great spot for anyone." All the amenities and luxury means living in Starwood comes at a premium, with the median home price over $1 million. "It's very exclusive," says Kelley Liu, a Managing Partner & Broker Associate at ERA Empower.
Starwood is known for its large, beautiful homes and iconic architectural designs.

Custom stone and brick luxury homes
Behind the gated walls of Starwood are over 900 custom homes with trees and greenery lining the neighborhood's winding streets. A sprinkle of more modest brick homes on the northern edge of the area, across Stonebrook Parkway, cost between $450,000 and $600,000. Towering custom brick homes are more common in the area and typically range from $850,000 to over a million dollars, many with some acreage. "You'll see maybe more the Mediterranean style and stucco, you know, so there's a good mixture," says Kelley Liu, a managing partner and broker associate at ERA Empower who lived in Frisco for over 15 years. "But in Texas, we're more known for our bricks than stucco." The community HOA fees run approximately $300 a month. Frisco's property tax rate is higher than in Dallas, at about 1.7%. "It's always a shock when somebody is moving here from a state where they had really low property taxes, and they move here, and they're like, oh my gosh, my taxes are 15,000 a year," Mancil says. On the eastern edges of the neighborhood is a collection of townhouses that usually cost between $400,000 and $500,000.

Access to Dallas North Tollway
Frisco is home to several major headquarters, including the PGA of America and T-Mobile, so Starwood's proximity to highways is a major perk for commuters. The neighborhood is nestled between three prominent roadways — Legacy Drive, Dallas North Tollway and Lebanon Road — and Dallas is about 30 miles south. High traffic is common during peak hours. DFW International Airport, the second largest airport in the country, is a 20-mile drive. Frisco is also home to several hospitals and medical facilities, including Baylor Scott and White Medical Center, less than 2 miles from Starwood.
