About the Home

Step into timeless charm and modern comfort with this beautifully renovated 1853 Colonial Farmhouse just minutes from Candlewood Lake. Thoughtfully moved onto a new foundation in 1986 and completely renovated in 2009, this home blends historic character with modern updates for a truly one-of-a-kind living experience. Featuring 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, the residence boasts a chef's kitchen with a gas cooktop, ample cabinetry with soft-close drawers, a swing-out pantry, and quality finishes-perfect for everyday living and entertaining. Large, updated bathrooms and a mudroom with smart storage and laundry organization add convenience, while the first-floor private office with custom built-ins creates an ideal retreat for remote work. Hardwood floors shine throughout the main level, while upstairs offers a mix of wall-to-wall carpeting with some original hardwood preserved underneath. The finished basement with luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring provides additional flexible living space, and a whole house generator offers peace of mind. Outdoors, enjoy a beautifully landscaped lawn and gardens, a fully fenced private backyard, and a large patio complete with a 6-person Marquis hot tub-your own personal oasis. This rare find combines vintage warmth, quality renovations, and modern comforts in a peaceful, private setting. Come see all it has to offer-you won't want to leave.
