Nestled in the scenic Texas Hill Country on the edge of Cedar Park, Cypress Canyon is a hidden gem that combines natural beauty with modern convenience. Designed with homeowners in mind, this neighborhood offers everything from well-maintained homes to easy access to top-notch amenities. Whether you’re looking for a comfortable place for your family or a quiet spot to enjoy nature, Cypress Canyon delivers. Built in the mid-late 2000s by Standard Pacific, Cypress Canyon homes range in size from 1,556-4,474 square feet, with an average size of 3,061 square feet. Lots range from 0.13-0.53 acres, with an average size of 0.213 acres. Homes are well kept and have great curb appeal with mature trees, grass and often other shrubs and planters with more color and greenery. Inside you can expect square tile and carpet flooring if the home has not had flooring updates and hardwood floors or vinyl plank flooring if it has. Layouts are half open, meaning they aren’t the one room concept that we see today. We see more half walls and separation of space in Cypress Canyon where you can see the next room over, but you’re usually separated by a wall or pillar to define each section. Residents enjoy access to two large community swimming pools, clubhouse, basketball court, park and playground that are technically part of the Ranch at Deer Creek neighborhood. Cypress Canyon homes are also members of the Deer Creek Ranch HOA. Cypress Canyon is also only minutes from shopping, restaurants, Lakeline Mall and the tech jobs in Northwest Austin and is ideal for someone looking for a relatively new subdivision with all the amenities you’d expect in a brand new master-planned community. This Cypress Canyon neighborhood guide explores what it’s like living in Cypress Canyon, from its inviting homes to recreational perks, and why it continues to be a favorite for homebuyers.
