English Commons at Topsfield: Bring your suitcase and move right in!

Model homes now available for sale -- community already over 50 percent sold out

What could be easier ... pack your suitcase and move right into a brand-new, fully furnished, professionally decorated model home, all in a maintenance-free community of quality-built homes by renowned North Shore builder C.P. Berry Homes. Here’s an opportunity that doesn’t come along every day. Even better, you’ll be moving to a community that offers so much.

English Commons at Topsfield, located at the gateway to Topsfield, is an open-space paradise all its own, including a 50-acre conservatory surrounding the new, maintenance-free homes being built by C.P. Berry Homes. Here, residents can enjoy the carefree lifestyle that is part of this active-adult condominium community. Rather than worrying about the cares of home upkeep, residents (and their young grandchildren) can enjoy the 4-acre center common green with scenic gazebo and a Nicklaus-design putting green; stroll the walking path to the Clubhouse (which includes a gathering room, reading room, fitness center, heated swimming pool and large, furnished sundeck); or hike the natural walking trail through the preserved open space.

Homes start at 2,800 square feet and offer customization and expanded living spaces up to nearly 4,000 square feet. All homes are built to Energy Star Level 2 certification (meaning energy savings of more than 35 percent compared to a home constructed to code) and include C.P. Berry Homes’ exclusive two-year New Home Warranty.

Already, this national award-winning community is more than 50 percent sold out. The model homes are now being offered for sale and include two available floor plans ranging from 3,000 square feet up to nearly 4,000 square feet. If you’d rather purchase one of the remaining new homes being built, completion dates vary and customization is available. The on-site Sales Center and model homes are open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The homeowners say it best ... “We love our new home.”

Drive through a C.P. Berry Homes community and ask the residents how they feel about their home. C.B. Berry Homes’ reputation is the foundation of its business and its homes. They’ve been building homes for generations and plan to continue to do so, long into the future.

“Our experience working with C.P. Berry Homes was 100 percent positive in every way. There was never a question that went unanswered, never a ‘glitch’ that went unresolved, and all with promptness, courtesy and expertise. The staff, both sales and construction, are professional, knowledgeable and have gone out of their way to help whenever possible — sometimes above and beyond. We love our new home at English Commons and are honored to be a part of the C.P. Berry family.” — Andrea and Mark, English Commons at Topsfield

“For more than a year, our home search centered on Winchester, where we were repeatedly disappointed by the condition of properties. By the time that we visited English Commons, we were already familiar with previous successful developments by C.P. Berry, but we were still surprised and delighted by the exceptional values represented here. We are very pleased with our decision. An outstanding facilitator, the sales director guided us smoothly through the purchase process. Equally important to us was the fact that each interaction was characterized by a high level of respect and consideration. C.P. Berry sets an exceptional standard in marketing and sales.” — Carole and Tony, English Commons at Topsfield

“We love being here! We love the Clubhouse and pool.” — Beth and Bill, English Commons

Visit today, and start planning your move. You, too, can be enjoying the carefree lifestyle, sumptuous amenities, open space, convenient location and a comfortable new, quality-built home.
