Community Details at a Glance
The Homes
Product
Single-family detached homes by KB Home; nine personalized floor plans listed as of July 2026, roughly 1,286 to 3,016 square feet with 3 to 4 bedrooms and 2 to 2.5 baths per the builder and portal listings
Builder
KB Home, a national builder already active in Zephyrhills (Chapel Manor opened November 2025); KB's build-to-order model lets buyers pick plan, elevation, and design options
Scale
Total planned homesite count is not published; the plat, phasing, and lot dimensions have not been released publicly as of July 2026 — confirm with the builder
Status
Launch phase. KB Home's site says model homes are now open (July 2026), but Zillow still lists the community as 'available soon — join the interest list' and no move-in-ready homes are listed; treat every detail as launch-window and verify in writing
Costs & Fees
Pricing
KB Home advertises 'from the low $300s' as of July 2026 — a base-house figure that excludes lot premiums, options, and fees and is subject to change; per-plan prices are not yet published on the major portals
HOA
KB Home's marketing says 'low HOA,' but no dollar figure has been published. Get the dues, what they cover, and any capital contribution in writing before contract
CDD
KB Home's marketing says 'No CDD.' That is a builder claim, not a recorded fact on this page — verify on the Pasco County tax roll before you budget
Amenities
In-community
No pool, clubhouse, or amenity center has been published for Deer Springs as of July 2026; the builder's highlight list is location-based (lake views, nearby parks and preserves) — confirm the actual amenity package with KB Home
Nearby recreation
Builder materials cite Blackwater Creek Nature Preserve, Gator Creek Reserve, Lower Green Swamp Nature Preserve, Mike E. Sansone Community Park, and Hillsborough River State Park within a short drive
Lake views
KB Home lists 'lake views' and portal data lists 'waterfront lots' among community features; which homesites actually get them, and at what premium, is unpublished
Location
Setting
Southwest side of Zephyrhills off the Crystal Springs Road corridor, ZIP 33540, Pasco County; the KB sales office address is 38145 Tanner Ban Dr, and earlier listings referenced 2607 Crystal Springs Rd
Highways
Short drive to shopping, dining, and entertainment along US-301 (Gall Blvd); KB Home's marketing cites convenient access to I-75 and I-275 for Tampa-area commuting
Context
Zephyrhills is one of Pasco County's active new-construction corridors, with Riverwood (Pulte), Cobblestone (M/I Homes), Two Rivers (Casa Fresca), and KB's own Chapel Manor all selling nearby as of mid-2026
The Homes & Status
Deer Springs is a new KB Home single-family community on the southwest side of Zephyrhills, in Pasco County, ZIP 33540, and as of July 10, 2026 it is right at its launch window. KB Home's own site says model homes are now open, while Zillow still lists the community as "available soon" with a join-the-interest-list prompt and NewHomeSource has pulled its listing pending updates. When the builder's page and the portals disagree, believe neither completely: call the sales office and get the current status in writing.
One disambiguation up front: this is not the Deer Springs we cover in Keystone Heights. That Deer Springs is an established acreage-style neighborhood in Clay County, in Northeast Florida. This page covers the new KB Home community in Zephyrhills, Pasco County, in the Tampa area.
The product is build-to-order single-family homes. Nine personalized floor plans are listed as of July 2026, running roughly 1,286 to 3,016 square feet with 3 to 4 bedrooms and 2 to 2.5 baths, per the builder and portal listings. KB's plan names follow its square-footage convention: Plan 1541, Plan 1707, Plan 2168, Plan 2333, Plan 2566, and so on. KB advertises personalized homes "delivered in 4-5 months."
Pricing: KB Home advertises "from the low $300s" as of July 2026. That is a base-house figure, excludes homesite premiums, options, and fees, and is subject to change without notice — KB's own fine print says exactly that. Per-plan pricing is not yet published on the major portals, which still show "contact for price." No move-in-ready homes are listed yet.
The total number of homesites, the plat, lot dimensions, and phasing have not been published as of this writing. That is the honest gap in the record, and it is a question to put directly to the builder.
The Site & Setting
Deer Springs sits off the Crystal Springs Road corridor on the southwest side of Zephyrhills. The KB sales office address is 38145 Tanner Ban Dr, Zephyrhills, FL 33540 — a brand-new street — and earlier listing records referenced 2607 Crystal Springs Rd for the same community.
The location story the builder tells is outdoors and commuting: lake views inside the community, and Blackwater Creek Nature Preserve, Gator Creek Reserve, Lower Green Swamp Nature Preserve, Mike E. Sansone Community Park, Hillsborough River State Park, and Crystal Springs Preserve within a short drive, plus US-301's shopping and dining a few minutes away and KB-cited access to I-75 and I-275 for Tampa-area commuting.
What has not been published is any in-community amenity package. As of July 2026 there is no pool, clubhouse, or amenity center in the builder's published materials — the highlight list is location-based. KB's marketing pairs that with "No CDD; low HOA," which is the classic trade: fewer built amenities, lower carry. If a pool matters to you, ask the builder directly whether one is planned, and get the answer in writing.
This is a car-dependent location — third-party walkability data scores it near the bottom of the scale — so budget for driving to essentially everything.
Before You Commit
Treat every number as launch-window and unconfirmed. The "from the low $300s" figure is the builder's advertised base price as of July 2026; it excludes lot premiums, options, and fees, and it can change without notice. Get the current price sheet, incentives, and any financing tie-ins in writing from KB at contract.
"No CDD; low HOA" is KB's marketing language. Verify the CDD status on the Pasco County tax roll for the specific parcel, and get the actual HOA dues, what they cover, and any capital contribution or sub-association from the recorded documents before you sign.
Verify school zoning by address with Pasco County Schools. KB's own page lists Chester Taylor Elementary (7.3 miles) while portal data lists West Zephyrhills Elementary (about 3 miles) — the sources disagree on the elementary assignment, which is exactly why you confirm with the district, not a listing. Raymond B. Stewart Middle and Zephyrhills High appear consistently across sources, but zones move; confirm for the specific homesite.
On any new-construction purchase, the first-year tax bill often reflects the unimproved lot and then resets sharply once the home is on the roll. Budget the true post-construction number, confirm Florida homestead eligibility, and remember the builder's sales staff works for the builder, not for you.
The Corridor
Zephyrhills is a genuinely competitive new-construction market in mid-2026, and Deer Springs launches into it. Per portal data checked July 10, 2026: Riverwood by Pulte Homes is selling from about $330,990 with 16 available homes and 27 plans; Cobblestone by M/I Homes from about $364,990 with 20 homes; Two Rivers by Casa Fresca from about $359,990; and Lennar's Townes at Crystal Brook offers attached product from about $233,740. KB Home itself opened Chapel Manor at Handcart Road and Fairview Heights Road in November 2025. Against that field, Deer Springs' advertised "from the low $300s" positions it near the affordable end of the detached-home set, and the "No CDD" claim — if it verifies on the tax roll — is a real monthly-carry advantage over CDD-burdened competitors. The catch is timing and information: the established communities have published prices, standing inventory, and completed amenities you can walk today, while Deer Springs is still thin on published detail. If you need a home now with full information, you are shopping Riverwood, Cobblestone, and Two Rivers; if you want first pick of lots in a just-opening community, Deer Springs is the one to track.
Who It Fits
Deer Springs fits the buyer who wants a new build-to-order KB home near the affordable end of the Zephyrhills market, values a no-CDD, lower-fee structure over built amenities, and is comfortable buying at launch when plats, premiums, and final numbers are still being released. It does not fit the buyer who wants a completed, amenitized community today, who needs a firm all-in monthly number before engaging, or who wants to walk a finished streetscape rather than a sales office and model homes. Anyone tracking this community should join the builder's interest list, line up independent representation, and confirm price, HOA, CDD status, school zoning, and the homesite count in writing before contract.
