About This Home
Rare opportunity to own a unique waterfront home in the desirable Candlewood Lake Estates. Loved by the same family for over 50 years, this mid-century was designed in the 1960s as a passive solar home and offers amazing lake views from nearly every room. While currently listed as a two bedroom, an addition in the 1970's added rooms and increased the size of the home to approximately 3,345 sq ft. 310 feet of direct shoreline, a private dock and a spacious grassy area...perfect for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying lake life!! Access to two private beaches on Green Pond and two private beaches on Candlewood Lake. Close to shops and restaurants. Easy access to Westchester, 75 miles from NYC and low taxes. Bring your vision and make this special property your own!
