About this home
Low taxes, small town, lake community. First time on the market, this meticulously maintained contemporary home sits on a sleepy cul-de-sac with seasonal views of Candlewood Lake (peek-a-boo views of lake during the summer). A deeded BOAT SLIP is included. This home's main floor has a sunken living room with fireplace, formal dining room, family room, large kitchen, office, laundry room, half-bath, and 2 car garage access (directly into the kitchen). Walk out the family room slider to enjoy the privacy of the 210sf+/- back deck and the 180sf+/- patio. Upstairs you’ll find 3 large bedrooms, 2 full baths, walk-in attic storage (large and easily accessed storge space). The main bedroom suite has vaulted ceilings with skylights and more attic storage. Basement is full and unfinished. This .59-acre property is sloped and has mature plantings. This home works beautifully as a full-time home or as a weekend/summer retreat. Located in the quaint town of Sherman, with low taxes, and an easy NY commute. Close to Sherman center, restaurants, wineries, breweries, The Sherman Playhouse, Sherman School, walking/hiking trails, antiquing, and library. The community beach is a lovely walk just down the road where your deeded dock slip awaits. Convenient to trains and 90 minutes to Manhattan.
