LUCAS, Texas — A high-end home still under construction in the Collin County city of Lucas has hit the market, underscoring the spread of luxury living to the far-flung corners of the Metroplex.

The 11,367-square-foot new construction located at 2305 Country Club Road will boast seven bedrooms, eight full bathrooms and two half-baths on nearly 4 acres. The custom home is expected to be completed in 2025, even without a buyer.

The property is listed at $12 million, or about $1,056 per square foot, which is the most expensive home for sale in the city, according to the listing database of the Houston Association of Realtors, which provides statewide home listing data. Of course, that would not include any properties being marketed off-market or pocket listings, which are common in luxury real estate.

Listing agent MJ Abdelrazzaq of United Real Estate said the home stands out from other luxury properties in Dallas-Fort Worth because of its "book-matched fireplace and contemporary millwork throughout."

The two-story home includes amenities such as an outdoor pool, a four-car garage, floating staircases and Turkish-made windows and doors. A guest house will be near the property, offering a gym, sauna, hot tub room and entertainment area.

The home also features Lutron controls for lighting and window shades, a feature seen in similar luxury homes throughout DFW including a $27.5 million mansion in Southlake built for an audiophile.

"It is a gorgeous area that boasts larger lots, spaced out homes, and offers a mix of city and country living," Abdelrazzaq said. "Housing in Lucas is luxury overall, specifically on the larger lots, and the area has been booming over the last five to 10 years."

Abdelrazzaq said United Real Estate bought the land for the home for $1.1 million six months prior to starting construction. A 22.66-acre tract nearby recently hit the market for $5.3 million, with its owners eyeing residential development.

Other nearby lots for sale range in price from $600,000 to $3 million, according to Zillow.

Lucas, which is about 30 miles northeast of downtown Dallas, is a small city amongst a growing population in Collin County. Residential real estate has surged in the area to meet the needs of people moving farther out from Dallas as well as those moving from out of state.

Lucas had a population of 7,612 in in 2020. That had grown to an estimated 8,461 in 2023, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
