Welcome to Candlewood Isle in New Fairfield, a private community created in 1929 on Candlewood Lake. This home has been lovingly cared for by the same family for 57 years. This is a 1935 lodge-style home with nice interior woodwork, vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and refinished hardwood floors on the main level. A renovated kitchen with fine cabinetry, stainless appliances, and chef's lighting. Prepare meals looking north while the attached dining room has two walls of windows looking north and west over the lake. The living room is a charm with a stone fireplace, French doors overlooking the empty lot, and a bright office facing the water. An original lodge style main level bedroom is complimented by a full bathroom with stall shower on the main floor. The upper level can be two bedrooms but was redesigned as a huge primary bedroom suite with a full bath, windows galore, and a vaulted ceiling. A two-car under garage and basement workbench area with spare room for a people-mover golf cart (not included) to go to the beach, tennis courts, marina and clubhouse. This sale includes the vacant lot south of the house at 9-A Ridge Road.
