Low taxes, small town, highly sought after Candlewood Isle lake community. This meticulously maintained ranch home sits on a quiet road, is surrounded by park like grounds, and has views of Candlewood Lake. Originally built in 1935, this lake home has seen some additions over its early years to bring it up to its current 1,290 sf and it has retained its lake house charm. The natural cedar siding blends seamlessly into the mature landscape and helps make the home low maintenance. Do you enjoy the warmth of tongue-and-groove pine boards? Then you’re in luck. The main living space also has a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and a floor to ceiling fireplace. The large dining room has a wall of windows and a sliding glass door with easy access to the deck. The large kitchen has room for a small table and has Candlewood Lake views. Just off the kitchen is a beautiful room tucked away from the rest of the house that can easily be used as a quiet office, guest room, media room, or whatever else suits your needs. Be sure you look out the window to see the view of Candlewood and make sure you look up to see the loft area. Basement is full and unfinished but there is adequate storage space, comfortable room for laundry, and interior access from home. This .2-acre property is level, has mature plantings, and plenty of parking spots. This home works beautifully as a full-time home or as a weekend/summer retreat. This guarded community offers year-round amenities which include a clubhouse, extra large sandy beach, dedicated swimming areas with seasonal lifeguards, a marina with boat slips, tennis & bocce courts, pickle ball court, basketball courts, playground, summer youth camp and social activities! Do you enjoy winter sports? The club house tennis court is turned into a hockey rink! Plenty of cross country skiing, ice skating, and ice fishing when the lake freezes! Convenient to trains and only 70 miles from Manhattan, close to town, retail shopping, schools, MetroNorth trains and major highways.
