PRINCETON Statesmen, town officials and clergy have lived in this brick-and-mortar piece of history known as the 1760 Peter Goodnow House.
The 16-room farmhouse at 49 Gregory Hill Road is on the National Register of Historic Places and on the market for $849,900.
Goodnow (1710-1783) was a Sudbury native who moved to Princeton. He was elected to the office of selectman in 1760. He subsequently held the posts of town assessor and treasurer before a second election to selectman. Goodnow’s signature is found on the first covenant of the Congregational Society in 1764.
Charles Russell completed the federal-style portion of the house in 1815, which was attached to an ell of the original 1760 build. Russell designed parts of the main house to replicate the circa 1786 Goodnow Inn, which is presently owned by the Massachusetts Audubon Society. An attached barn was added to the home in 1824.
