Cherry Blossom Downs

MURFREESBORO’S NEW SINGLE-STORY TOWNHOME COMMUNITY

Location & Daily Life

Cherry Blossom Downs sits on the north side of Murfreesboro in zip code 37129, positioned along John Richards Drive in Rutherford County. The location gives residents quick access to Medical Center Parkway and Interstate 840, putting the heart of Murfreesboro within minutes and Nashville reachable in roughly 35 to 40 minutes depending on traffic.

Day to day, you are close to the grocery, dining, and retail options along Memorial Boulevard and at the Avenue Murfreesboro. The Stones River Greenway system is accessible nearby, offering miles of paved trails for walking and biking. The Siegel school campus is just steps from the neighborhood, making the school commute about as short as it gets in Rutherford County.

The community itself was designed with a low-maintenance lifestyle in mind. With only 52 homes, it has the scale of a true neighborhood rather than a sprawling subdivision, and the HOA handles lawn mowing and landscaping so residents spend their weekends on anything but yard work.

The Homes

Cherry Blossom Downs is built by BA Homes (BadAss Homes LLC), a Murfreesboro-area builder known for personality-forward community design. Every home in the community is a single-story attached townhome, which means no stairs and an easy, accessible floor plan from day one. Elite Constructors, Inc. serves as the construction partner on the project.

BA Homes offers two floor plans here. The Magnolia is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath layout starting around 1,677 square feet. The Dogwood comes in at 1,800 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Both plans feature an attached 2-car garage, open living area, and an exterior finish in hardboard siding.

Interior finishes are notably elevated for the price point. Standard features include built-in cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, laminated hardwood flooring, tile backsplashes, a free-standing soaking tub, and a tile walk-in shower in the primary bath. On the exterior, homes feature board-and-batten shutters, screened back porches, and fenced yards. Every home is step-free throughout, designed with ease of access at the forefront.

Homes in this community are offered across several interior packages (Package A, B, and C), each representing a different selection of finishes and upgrades. All selections are confirmed before construction is completed, so buyers know exactly what they are getting before they close.

Amenities

Cherry Blossom Downs punches above its weight when it comes to community amenities for a neighborhood this size. The central gathering space anchors the community with a covered pavilion large enough for private events, a fire pit, a pickleball court, and outdoor games including cornhole, horseshoes, and bocce ball. It is the kind of setup that actually gets neighbors outside and talking.

The HOA takes care of lawn mowing and landscaping throughout the community, keeping the neighborhood consistently maintained without requiring individual homeowner effort. Fenced yards on each home provide private outdoor space despite the attached nature of the townhomes. Screened back porches add usable square footage through most of the Tennessee year.

Beyond the community gates, the Murfreesboro Greenway is accessible nearby for walking and biking. The proximity to Medical Center Parkway means shopping, restaurants, and healthcare facilities are all within a few minutes of driving.

Schools

Cherry Blossom Downs is located in Rutherford County, which means students attend Rutherford County Schools. Based on MLS data verified from RealTracs, elementary students attend Erma Siegel Elementary School, middle schoolers are zoned for Siegel Middle School, and high school students attend Siegel High School. All three campuses are part of the Siegel feeder system, one of the stronger school corridors within Rutherford County Schools, and they are located close to the neighborhood, making the daily commute short for families.

Always verify school zoning directly with Rutherford County Schools before closing, as boundaries can change.

Why Work with Nashville Home Guru to Buy or Sell in Cherry Blossom Downs

Cherry Blossom Downs is a newer community with a limited number of homes. In a market like this, timing, information, and access matter more than in a large established subdivision where inventory is always turning. Patrick Higgins and the Nashville Home Guru team at Compass bring specific advantages to buyers and sellers here.

Patrick is a seven-time RealTrends Top Tennessee Agent who leads the number one real estate team in Nashville and number seven in Tennessee according to the Wall Street Journal’s RealTrends rankings. His team has closed over 1,100 transactions representing more than $500 million in career residential sales across Middle Tennessee. With 100-plus Google Reviews and 87 Zillow Reviews at 5.0 stars, the feedback from buyers and sellers across Murfreesboro reflects what that experience delivers in practice.

Compass is the number one residential real estate brokerage in the United States by sales volume. After merging with Parks Real Estate in 2024, Compass agents are now involved in approximately 1 in 4 homes sold across Tennessee, giving clients access to the largest agent network and the most extensive inventory of coming-soon and private exclusive listings in the state. While Compass was not involved in the earliest closed sales at Cherry Blossom Downs, that network reach means Patrick can connect serious buyers with homes before they ever hit the open market and give sellers maximum exposure across every channel.

For sellers, the Compass 3-Phase Marketing Strategy gives you a significant advantage over the standard MLS approach. Phase 1, Compass Private Exclusive, shows your home to a select audience before going public so you can test pricing and gather feedback without accumulating days on market. Phase 2, Compass Coming Soon, launches your listing on Compass.com where buyers can find your home without seeing price history or days on market. Phase 3 is the full public launch on the MLS and all major third-party platforms, with demand already built from the prior two phases. Homes pre-marketed through this strategy close 2.9% higher, go under contract 20% faster, and are 30% less likely to require a price reduction. In a community where homes are priced tightly between the upper $450s and $500,000, that difference is meaningful.

Community amenities include a covered pavilion suitable for private events, a pickleball court, fire pit, cornhole, horseshoes, and bocce ball. Each home also features a fenced yard and screened back porch. The HOA maintains the landscaping and mows all yards.

What type of buyer is Cherry Blossom Downs best suited for?

Cherry Blossom Downs is a strong fit for buyers who want new construction quality without the maintenance obligations of a single-family home. The single-story, step-free layout makes it appealing for downsizers, active adults, and anyone prioritizing accessibility. Young professionals and dual-income couples also do well here given the location near Murfreesboro’s employment corridors and the short drive to Nashville. Buyers who want a small, close-knit community rather than a large subdivision tend to be happiest here.

How does Patrick Higgins approach buying or selling in Cherry Blossom Downs?

In a brand-new 52-home community with only a handful of closed sales, pricing is the hardest part of any transaction because there are very few comparable sales to work from and the spread between the two floor plans is narrow. Patrick prices each home against the actual closed sales here plus comparable single-story townhome and new construction product across north Murfreesboro, rather than relying on automated estimates that struggle with thin data. For buyers, that means knowing whether a Magnolia or Dogwood is priced fairly against its package and upgrades; for sellers, it means positioning a resale against whatever the builder still has available. The team also uses Compass Coming Soon to surface homes before they reach the open market in a community where inventory is scarce.
