About This Home

Amazing property offered to the public for the first time since being built. Originally built by a local doctor and purchased by the Nelson family in 2013, then extensively renovated on the interior as well as the exterior. A sprawling 3000+ square foot ranch situated on 5.13 acres on the edge of Princeton. The privacy is as amazing as the views of the timber and wildlife that abounds in the area. The main floor has a fantastic layout with large kitchen and breakfast area, dining and living room with huge windows to view the timber to the South and West, large hallways for accessibility as well as a recently installed elevator to access the main and lower level. The walk out basement is finished with family room, den, 1/2 bath, incredible storage 31X28 area and double door access to the rear as well as access to attached garage. An additional storage building is to the West side of the lot for mower and toy storage. The quality throughout the home is truly amazing. Landscaping around the home has all been professionally done. The property is serviced by Princeton city water and is on its own septic system. Generac electric backup is in place. It all comes together to provide an incredible place to call home.
