From the Horse's Mouth (letter from sellers)
Dear Potential New Resident of 8 Cardinal Circle,
From our family to yours, welcome to our home. Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the close-knit Ternberry Estates community, this house has been a true sanctuary for us—a place filled with laughter and countless beautiful memories. Beyond the square footage and room counts, we wanted to share the soul of this house—the everyday magic and quiet moments that made it a true home for us.
The house is incredibly bright and airy. Thanks to its ideal geographic orientation, the sun rises in the front and sets directly behind the house, providing warm, natural light all day long.
Guests are welcomed by a beautiful paver walkway, a charming covered front porch, and a sunlit two-story foyer. The main level is designed for gatherings, featuring a central kitchen with a breakfast island and a large eating area. The adjacent living room features a cozy fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and direct access to the back deck. The floor plan offers immense flexibility, including a formal dining room, a first-floor study that can seamlessly serve as a fifth bedroom, and four spacious upstairs bedrooms anchored by a central loft. The primary suite serves as a private retreat with a generous walk-in closet. Additionally, the expansive basement is a blank canvas ready to be transformed into a home theater, gym, or playroom.
Our children truly lived outdoors here. The secluded backyard offers a peaceful space for morning meditation or evening relaxation, while the expansive lawn served as the perfect playground for soccer games and flying kites. During the warmer months, the sparkling in-ground pool provides the ultimate way to relax and unwind. When winter arrives, the property transforms into a breathtaking, snow-covered wonderland—a picturesque landscape where kids enjoyed fun sledding, crafting snowmen, and embracing the season's magic. The property is also a natural bird sanctuary. A path from the backyard leads directly into a wooded open space, allowing us to observe various species, including our favorites: cardinals and blue jays. The landscape even features a tranquil koi pond structure ready to be beautifully restored.
Living here offers a wonderful neighborhood experience. The community features a private park, a playground, and basketball courts. We loved taking family bike rides along the neighborhood paths, made safe by courteous neighbors and mindful drivers. While the street feels completely tucked away, commuting is seamless with quick access to Interstate 290 and Route 9. We are within five minutes of UMass Medical Center and vibrant shopping at Lakeway Commons and Quinsigamond Plaza, including Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and Target. For recreation, we spent weekends at Regatta Point on Lake Quinsigamond, enjoying the breathtaking sunrises and holiday fireworks.
We hope you enjoy this home as much as we have. We wish you a lifetime of happiness as you make 8 Cardinal Circle your own.
With gratitude,
The Sellers of 8 Cardinal Circle
