The steel frame scaffolding of the “Infinity” luxury residential property was digitally designed and 3D printed. The building lies at 3980 Starling Drive, Frisco, and is expected to be completed in 2027.
A standout steel-frame luxury residence is on the market in Frisco, and its views align with its name: Infinity.
The modern mansion, listed for $15 million and brokered by Christie’s International Real Estate Lone Star and the Mooty Luxury Group, lies on a .81 acre lot at 3980 Starling Drive, Frisco. It’s built using a technique novel to residential builds: steel-frame construction.
“It almost looks like a castle,” Mooty Luxury Group CEO Jerry Wayne Mooty Jr. said. “It’s got one of probably the best views in the neighborhood.”

Infinity’s high ceilings and expansive windows could fit into Los Angeles just as well as North Texas, and that’s intentional, said the developer behind the property, Shalin Patel of 100 Million Design + Build.
“We wanted to bring a new style of architecture and a new vibe and a new feel in the North Texas area,” Patel said.
Besides being stronger than wood, the steel framework is more environmentally friendly, Patel said. The beams are designed digitally, then printed from steel using a 3D printer. The materials are assembled on site with less waste and more precision than a traditional build.
Using this method cut down the time to build and frame a house from an average of three to six months to four weeks, according to Patel.

Steel is an attractive option for windy North Texas since it’s more weather resistant than wood, Patel said. Now Steel IQ, the Dallas-based brand behind Infinity’s framing, is bringing the steel frame model to residential as well as commercial structures in North Texas.
From its position on a hill, the six-bedroom, 6-full bathroom and 3-half bathroom property has views of a nature preserve, Frisco and the Dallas Cowboys World Headquarters, or The Star. That makes it one of the most desirable properties in a neighborhood full of luxury residences, Mooty said.

Since listing in early June, the property has already seen interest from potential buyers, both Patel and Mooty said. The neighborhood, the gated and guarded The Hills of Kingswood, is home to athletes, making its proximity to The Star a selling point.
Beyond the unique building process, Infinity’s amenities will include a glass elevator spanning three floors, glass walls and an infinity-edge pool.

While the residence has a modern feel, the steel framing could be used on a more traditional home, too. The choice to go with a California-inspired style comes down to client tastes.
“We have a lot of professional athletes that live in this neighborhood,” Mooty. “So, you’re going a little more modern, and I think it goes with the neighborhood.”
The 13,559-square-foot building is still under construction with an estimated completion date in 2027.
The Denton Central Appraisal District put Infinity at a market value of $3.64 million for tax purposes. The property is located in the Lewisville Independent School District.
