This sweet cape-style home is set on 1.8 flat acres, bordering thousands of acres of conservation land in Princeton, a small town with nearly half its land protected and Wachusett Mountain Ski Area and Reservation just minutes away. Inside, hardwood floors run through the living room, dining room, front hall and bedrooms. The front-to-back living room opens into a dining room with a built-in hutch, and the kitchen has a walk-in pantry. Above the garage, a bonus room accessed from the second bedroom works as a home office, playroom, oversized closet, or additional bedroom. The current owners have put real work into the home since 2018. The side porch was converted into a three-season sunroom, the first floor bathroom was redone, and a large composite deck was added for private outdoor space at the back of the home. New windows and gutters were installed, along with blown-in and foam insulation. Mechanically, a Roth oil tank was installed in 2025, the septic system was replaced in 2018, the well pump was replaced in 2015, the water heater in 2017, and several interior light fixtures have been updated along the way. If you love hiking or the outdoors, Princeton has something for you. Like tennis? Check out labordaytennis.com and catch some matches when you're exploring our little town. Princeton is also home to the Thomas Prince School, a K-8 STEAM program feeding into Wachusett Regional High School. The Wachusett Station MBTA commuter rail station and Route 190 are each about 10 minutes away, and Princeton now has high-speed fiber to the home internet service.
