Waterfront Candlewood Lake living, elevated. This exceptional retreat at 28 Lake Drive commands roughly 50 feet of coveted direct lake frontage, complete with a private sandy beach and dock- a rare offering on one of Connecticut's premier lakes. A dramatic stone fireplace rises beneath soaring vaulted ceilings and hand-hewn beams, anchoring a living room bathed in natural light, while the adjoining dining room frames uninterrupted water views through a wall of windows. The eat-in kitchen flows effortlessly to a main-level deck, made for entertaining against a backdrop of lake and treetops. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private sanctuary, with its own balcony overlooking the water and a spa-caliber bath featuring a freestanding soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, and dual vanity set beneath an octagon window framed on the lake. A walk-up attic offers refined extra space, while the finished lower level, appointed with its own full bath, opens to a stone patio designed for lakeside gatherings. Set on 0.13 acres within the desirable Candlewood Trails community, this 2,336-square-foot residence, built in 1935, pairs timeless craftsmanship with an unmatched waterfront lifestyle. Marinas, boat launches, and New Milford's finest dining are just minutes away. A true direct-waterfront property with a private beach on Candlewood Lake rarely comes to market - don't miss the opportunity to make it yours.
