Cypress Run is a private, gated golf community in Tarpon Springs, in the East Lake corridor of northern Pinellas County, off East Lake Road. It is built around the Cypress Run Golf Club, a private championship course designed by Larry Packard, who also designed the Copperhead course at the nearby Innisbrook Resort (Cypress Run Golf Club; GolfPass, 2026).
The community pairs custom single-family homes, which local guides describe as roughly 2,000 to 5,000-plus square feet on oversize lots, some a half acre or larger, with a section of maintenance-free luxury villas that carry no age restriction. The setting is a park-like grid of mature oak trees with golf course, pond, and conservation views, and a gated, manned security entrance (Tarpon Springs real estate guides, 2026).
The homes largely date to the mid-1980s, so this is a condition-driven luxury market: the roof, the systems, and an honest renovation read matter as much as the address. Confirm the exact lot, the home type, and whether the parcel is single-family or villa before you fall for the setting.
The pitch is private golf and gated privacy inside the sought-after East Lake corridor, with strong schools nearby and an inland position off the immediate coast. The work is sorting custom homes from villas, reading the club and HOA terms, and budgeting condition and insurance on 1980s stock.
