Greenspaces, a golf course and the greenway
Many residents have access to private community pools and playgrounds within subdivisions. Beyond the planned residential streets await public green spaces. For some, Young Pine Community Park is within walking distance for kayaking, hiking along the trails or fishing on the small dock. Others stay active on the soccer fields and sand volleyball courts. The Little Econ Greenway is a 7-mile trail that connects to other parks and canoe trails. Rio Pinar Golf and Country Club, less than 5 miles away, has exclusive amenities, including an 18-hole course, digital driving range and tennis courts.

Homes built from 1980 to new construction
Planned subdivisions strike a balance between seclusion from downtown and connection within the community. "I absolutely love this part of Orlando," says George Mercado, a Cypress Springs resident who also owns Professional Lawncare and Maintenance LLC. "During the cooler seasons, people walk their dogs, and you'll see kids on bikes and scooters. This is an established neighborhood that feels very safe and family-oriented," Mercado says. Housing styles include mostly midsized ranches and new traditional properties with front yards. These homes span in age from the mid-1980s to recently constructed dwellings from the last three years. Most association fees include access to community pools and recreational spaces like basketball and volleyball courts. Buyers choose gated developments, like Cypress Knee Circle and Woodland Lakes Preserve, for more privacy. Some of the newest houses are in the Heritage Oaks and Pinewood Reserve subdivisions.
Properties generally come off the market in less time than the national average of 44 days. "For the past 3 years, I noticed that once a house is listed, there's also five to six different offers," Marrero says. "Homes tend to sell really quick, and either at asking price or close to it." Most single-family homes in Cypress Springs cost between $375,000 and $675,000. Condos and townhomes built over the last five years range in price from $250,000 to $450,000. Homes in the area have a mild risk of flooding. Orlando was recently awarded federal funding to help reduce the risk of flooding on the city's east side.
