Aqueduct
The northwestern corner of Hudson — newer developments, conservation land, and a rural feel with town amenities.
About Aqueduct
The Aqueduct area takes its name from the historic Wachusett Aqueduct that runs through this part of town — now a popular walking and cross-country ski trail. This is Hudson's growth frontier: newer subdivisions built in the 2000s and 2010s sit alongside older farmstead properties and conservation land. The feel is more rural than the rest of Hudson, with stone walls, open fields, and the kind of quiet that makes you forget you're 35 miles from Boston. It's popular with families who want a newer home with modern amenities but don't want to pay Sudbury or Stow prices.
Property Character
Mix of newer construction subdivisions (2000s-2020s) and older properties on larger, sometimes semi-rural lots. The newest homes in Hudson are concentrated here. Well-maintained with modern floor plans.

Getting Around
Car-dependent. Slightly farther from I-495 than other parts of Hudson — add 5-10 minutes. Closer to Bolton and Stow for Route 117 access. The Aqueduct trail connects to broader regional trail networks.
Schools
Feeds into Quinn Middle School and Hudson High School. Newer families in this area have been active in school committee and PTO engagement. Good bus coverage for the subdivisions.
