About This Home
Direct Candlewood Lake waterfront with a private dock. Step from your home to the water and experience lake living in every season. Set along Connecticut's largest lake with desirable western exposure, this beautifully maintained 3 bedroom home offers an increasingly rare opportunity to own your own piece of Candlewood Lake. Tucked into a beautiful, private cove away from the main flow of boat traffic, the setting is peaceful, family friendly, and ideal for swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and relaxing by the water. Spend summer days boating directly from your private dock, enjoy spectacular Connecticut fall foliage reflected across the lake, and embrace winter with skating and seasonal recreation just steps from home. Surrounded by mature hydrangeas and filled with natural light, the home features a spacious great room with a stone fireplace, renovated bath, additional finished lower level space, outdoor shower, garage parking, and a newly paved driveway with room for multiple vehicles. The property also offers expansion potential and benefits from a recorded septic easement. Whether envisioned as a full time residence, weekend escape, or summer retreat, this is a special opportunity to enjoy the beauty, privacy, and four season lifestyle that make Candlewood Lake one of Connecticut's most sought after destinations.
