Description

Authentic 1938 Stone and Timber Candlewood Lake House. Set directly on this magical Connecticut lake this native stone house evokes the easy days of lake living. With its private grassed lake front the westward facing home enjoys all the lake can provide-swimming, fishing, boating. Towering native oaks, aged maples and specimen trees dot the property and provide beauty and shade. Stone terraces provide different places for sitting, cooking and sitting around a firepit. The interior of the house is as cool as outside. Stone and timber adorn the home where the living room boast the 30 foot stone fireplace and soaring beamed ceiling. The modern kitchen is supplemented with an outdoor kitchen on the large stone patio perfect for large parties. There are three gracious bedrooms with the primary bedroom commanding an amazing lake view. A private office is available as well as recreation room. There is also a media room on the lower level. There are three and a half bath with one on the lower level for lake use. OR use the outdoor shower to rinse off from the lake or the hot tub! This home is meant to share with the clan and entertain or relax all season long. Insanely private and the views are subtly amazing as across the lake is nearly 1000 acres of land where no houses reside. So, you look out over wilderness as if you were transported back to the time when the lake was created. Minutes to New Milford CT where all shopping and services are provided. Minutes to Metro North.

    "I’ve lived in this neighborhood for about ten years and not only do I find it gorgeous, I also find that it’s friendly, safe and welcoming. I came from a beach community in California where the ocean was my front yard. I never, for even a moment, would have believed that a small town on the east coast would bring me so much happiness! From neighbors who live next door to the business owners you see every week, I’ve gotten to know them all and I can honestly say I’ve never felt more comfortable and happy in any other place I’ve lived. And yes, I’ve lived in many other cities and states!"
