Princeton home tucked on 4 private acres, yet very near town center. The first floor shines with a great room with an open beam vaulted ceiling, a fireplace, wet bar, and wall of windows. Recent updates include roof, deck, Buderus, water heater, well pump, mini splits for heat and A/C, underground electric/fiber and generator hookup. Lower level accessory apartment adds 850SF with kitchenette, living room, bedroom and bath—and more heated space to expand on that level. Potential for finished space above the garage. Set 300' off the road, with room to roam & garden on all 4 sides—your dogs will love it here! Mature landscaping, 60+ maple trees, flowering plants—spectacular foliage surrounds the property. Thomas Prince K-8. Close to Wachusett Mountain Ski Area and just a minute from the library, town hall, and the existing and proposed public safety building. Princeton has high speed internet, an active tennis community, and 4 seasons of recreation, just 20 minutes north of Worcester.
