About this home

For sale for the first time ever, this incredibly peaceful location just can’t be duplicated. Remarkable privacy on 9.7 acres with a 1000’+ flat driveway and AMAZING 40-mile view. Classic cape style home, ready to move in or bring your ideas for expansion in the unfinished space and beyond. Brand new 4 bedroom septic system, original pine floors throughout. On a clear day you can see Boston and at night, the distant lights. Bonus for birdwatchers, this unspoiled habitat will wow you! Stone walls and blueberries everywhere, surrounded by hundreds of acres of conservation land and horse trails. Princeton’s Thomas Prince K-8 school has a sought after STEM curriculum and this house has fiber optic internet. 8A Sterling Road feels completely removed from hectic modern life, yet it’s conveniently located just 5 miles to Wachusett Mountain Ski Area, 8 miles to Route 2 and the Wachusett MBTA Commuter Rail Station, 15 miles to Worcester, and 20 miles to Devens. Don’t miss the video tour!
