Cypress Creek
Suburban Neighborhood in Boynton Beach, Florida
Palm Beach County 33436
A community of 421 custom homes
The area consists of three main subdivisions: Cypress Creek, Bent Tree Villas East and Bent Tree Villas West. Cypress Creek is a gated community built on and around the golf course. Currently, there are 421 houses in the subdivision, but if developers successfully purchase the land, that number will balloon. Most homes here are custom ranches and Spanish Mission styles on lots that max out around one-third of an acre. Smaller single-story homes with two to four bedrooms range from $555,000 to $835,000, while large Spanish Mission estates with three to five bedrooms sell for between $870,000 and $1.35 million. The Bent Tree Villas subdivisions are 55-plus communities with a mix of renovated two-bedroom condos and single-family homes built in the 1980s. Prices range from $225,000 to $350,000. They are a bit farther out from the golf course, so they are less likely to be heavily affected by construction. Of note: all three communities have required HOAs. “It’s one of the very few neighborhoods with an HOA in Palm Beach County that I would consider moving to,” says Brett Colby, an associate of 20 years with RE/MAX Direct. He points to the neighborhood’s relatively low HOA fees, larger-than-normal lot sizes and safety.

Proximity to prestigious golf courses
Since the neighborhood is made up of gated communities, most residents have access to exclusive amenities like clubhouses and swimming pools. And while the Cypress Creek Club is no longer operational, golfers have several prestigious, private options within a 4-mile radius, including the Indian Spring Country Club, Pine Tree Golf Club and the Country Club of Florida. A little farther out is the Links at Boynton Beach, a city-owned course, complete with an 18-hole and 9-hole course, a putting green and a driving range. Pioneer Canal Park is a popular spot for non-golf-related activities, featuring amenities like basketball and tennis courts, a playground and a fishing pier off of Lake Osborne. The neighborhood is also around 5 miles from the famous Ocean Inlet Park, an 11-acre stretch of beaches off the Atlantic Ocean.

Boynton Beach Community High offers specialized career-based programs
The neighborhood is served by the Palm Beach County School District, which includes Galaxy Elementary School, graded a C-plus on Niche; Congress Middle School, graded a C; and Boynton Beach Community High School, graded a C-plus. Boynton Beach Community High offers eleven choice programs, or specialized pathways, for aerospace science, pre-med, I.T., dance and more. A nearby public charter school option is Franklin Academy, a kindergarten through eighth-grade institution offering a comprehensive research-based curriculum.

Boynton Beach Boulevard, S Military Trail border the neighborhood
The neighborhood is bounded by Boynton Beach Boulevard and S Military Trail, which connect to U.S. Interstate 95, a busy commuter thoroughfare. Nearby big cities include West Palm Beach and Boca Raton, about 15 and 17 miles away, respectively. For residents who prefer public transit, Palm Tran buses pickup along Boynton Beach Boulevard and S Military Trail. And for longer trips, Palm Beach International Airport is a little more than 15 miles away.

Major shopping destinations about 1 mile away
Cypress Creek is mainly residential, but there are several major malls and shopping centers surrounding it. Boynton Trail Centre is the closest commercial area and has a Walmart Neighborhood Market, a smaller-than-normal Walmart selling groceries and basic home necessities. Another busy shopping area is Boynton Town Center, which features Target, Michaels, Best Buy, and more. It’s just over 1 mile away making it a popular option for locals. And for even more shopping options, Boynton Beach Mall is less than 1 mile outside of town. It’s home to more than 120 businesses, including department stores, restaurants and entertainment spaces. There are several options for dining out, including The Boulevard, one of the area’s highest-rated eateries, lauded for its custom cocktails and dry rub wings. Its vibrant environment, complete with LED lights and live music, makes it a popular nightlife destination.

POA advocates for safety measures following the discovery of contaminated soil
Directly following the closure of the country club, Pulte Homes submitted a proposal to buy the land. The deal would later fall through, but while working on their proposal, they conducted a series of soil tests that showed the presence of high levels of arsenic, pesticides and other harmful chemicals. “When you’re developing raw land in Florida, that’s the catch-22,” says Realtor Mike Ryan with Highlight Realty Crop. He notes that since much of Florida was used for farming, it’s common for developers to excavate contaminated soil before building. “It takes some time,” he says. If the Toll Brothers’ proposal is approved, they will excavate around 353,000 cubic yards of soil. This process alone is expected to take at least nine months. According to Cypress Creek Property Owners Association Board Secretary Julie Nicholas, it’s believed that if the soil in the already existing community is undisturbed, it is not harmful.
