There is a sense of serenity behind Starwood's guarded gates that is increasingly hard to find in the heart of Frisco. Mature trees canopy winding streets, walking trails weave through the community and creeks, fountains, waterfalls, and abundant birdlife create a peaceful setting that can feel worlds away.
Starwood was designed for more than beautiful homes. Residents enjoy a clubhouse, fitness center, swimming pool, tennis courts, along with trails and landscaped common areas. From quiet cul-de-sacs, elevated homesites, and wooded creek settings to intimate villas and English manors, Starwood's distinctive areas offer a wide variety of surroundings.
Perhaps what sets Starwood apart most is its security, privacy, and peaceful, established setting that can feel removed from the city, yet is only minutes from some of Frisco's most sought-after destinations.
Starwood's story began in the 1990s, when the Jones family, best known as the owners of the Dallas Cowboys, acquired approximately 550 acres in Frisco through Blue Star Land. The property would become Starwood, one of Frisco's earliest guard gated luxury communities.
Developed long before Frisco became the destination it is today, Starwood introduced a prestigious mix of custom homes, estate properties, villas and beautifully landscaped streets within a private, guard-gated setting. Decades later, its mature trees, established homes and location near the Dallas North Tollway continue to distinguish Starwood from many of Frisco's newer luxury communities.


Starwood is known for its custom luxury homes, distinctive architecture, and beautifully established streetscapes. Residences range from elegant traditional designs, English manors and French-inspired estates to Mediterranean and European estates, and more contemporary and modern designs. The diversity extends to the scale of the homes themselves, from villas and patio homes to substantial custom estates, with some residences exceeding 14,000 square feet.
Homes throughout Starwood showcase an equally wide range of custom features, including expansive outdoor living areas, resort-style pools and spas, outdoor kitchens, cabanas, sport courts and multi-car garages. Homesites are just as varied, from wooded creek lots and elevated properties to oversized and acre-plus estates. Mature trees and established landscaping give Starwood a character and sense of permanence that is difficult to replicate in newer luxury communities.
Over the years, homes in Starwood have been built by an extensive collection of custom and luxury builders. Builders represented in the community include Axxium Custom Homes, Balthazar, Bella Custom Homes, Belmont Custom Homes, Bob Bobbitt Custom Homes, Bruce Ott Custom Builders, Cresswell Custom Builders, Curtiss Custom Homes, Darling Homes, Drais/Thompson Custom Homes, George E. Fuller Custom Homes, Huntington Homes, Jim Benson & Associates, Kirlin Custom Homes, Martineck-Johnson Custom Homes, Mayfair Custom Concept Homes, Mike Peck Custom Builders, Pierce Homes, Regal Custom Homes, Reynolds Signature Homes, Robert Balkman Custom Homes, Sanders Homes, Seta Custom Homes, Solera Designers-Builders, Steve Roberts Custom Builders, Tony Rossi Custom Homes, Wilson Companies Custom Homes, Zachary Custom Builders, and Hawkins-Welwood Homes. This breadth of builders contributes to Starwood's unusually diverse architecture and the individuality found from one street to another.

Starwood was developed in 20 villages across multiple phases of the community. Throughout Starwood, individual villages and areas carry names including Chamberlyne Place, Chamberlyne Place Estates, Spanish Oaks Estates, Spanish Oaks, Villas of Star Ridge, Villas of Star Creek, Village of Quail Run, Villas of Star Trail, Stewarts Crossing, The Lakes, Villages of the Lakes, The Falls, The Buttes, The Reserves, Village of the Oaks. The community offers a wide variety of homes, from lock-and-leave villas and patio homes to large custom residences and sprawling estate properties. Homesites vary as well, with some overlooking the creek, others backing to wooded areas, situated on oversized lots or tucked into cul-de-sacs.
Homes within Starwood can vary significantly in value, even when they are similar in size. The specific area, street, lot position, architectural style, age, renovations, condition and individual property features can all influence how a home compares within the community. Understanding those differences is especially important when evaluating comparable sales or establishing a pricing strategy.
Starwood is not a community that should be evaluated with a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether buying, selling, or simply trying to understand the value of a Starwood property, knowledgeable analysis of the home and its position within the community matters. With more than 22 years in real estate, GUILD ELITE certified for proven success in the $2M+ luxury market and an in-depth understanding of Starwood, Kimberly Karanouh provides the experience, strategy and skilled representation luxury buyers and sellers expect. Her commitment to exceptional service is reflected in consistent 5-star Google reviews from buyers and sellers.
