Commanding 16 private acres with a private road high above Candlewood Lake and Squantz Pond, this 3,919 sq ft contemporary estate delivers sweeping water and ridge views from nearly every room, a setting that cannot be replicated. Solar panels, multi-tiered decks wrap the entire home, and floor-to-ceiling glass connects the architecture to an irreplaceable natural landscape. The main living level features a soaring vaulted family room with a dramatic arched window wall, a formal living room spanning nearly 30 feet, and a renovated chef's kitchen with custom glazed cabinetry, granite counters, subway tile backsplash, gas cooktop, double wall oven, and stainless steel appliances. Hardwood floors throughout. The entire third floor is devoted to the primary suite bedroom, sunroom with lake views, and spa bath with soaking tub, steam shower, sauna, double vanity, and walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms and updated baths offer ideal guest separation. Finished lower-level rec room, full bath, and laundry complete the interior. Step outside to a gunite pool with a stone surround, a fully appointed pool house with wet bar, changing room, and shower. Sweeping lawn, mature trees, and 16+ acres of woodland privacy. A dedicated overlook frames an unobstructed panorama of Candlewood Lake and the ridgeline. Two parcels on a private road shared with four neighbors.
