About This Home

Welcome to Candlewood, a reimagined post & beam estate on nearly 40 acres in one of Waitsfield’s most coveted locations. This exceptional legacy property offers sweeping views of the Sugarbush Bowl, Mt. Ellen and Mad River Glen, amazing sunsets, lush manicured gardens, and a remarkable 15-foot-deep swimming pond featuring a custom circulating waterfall, aerating fountain, dock, beach, and surrounding trails for walking, hiking, or snowmobiling.

Thoughtfully redesigned, the 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home blends timeless craftsmanship with modern systems and infrastructure. The expansive living and dining area centers around a wood-burning fireplace and a dramatic wall of windows that frame the breathtaking mountain landscape. The chef’s kitchen—anchored by custom mahogany cabinetry—seamlessly connects to the three bay garage via a new mudroom and laundry room. Magnificent 12–24” wide barn plank flooring runs throughout the main level.

Comfort is paramount with a 50,000 BTU wood stove, whole-house attic fan, six Mitsubishi split systems (in every bedroom, the office, and 2nd Floor bonus room), and a seven-zone heating system. The finished basement includes a 350-bottle wine cellar, Swiss-style sauna, snack kitchen, full bath, and media lounge perfect for game day gatherings.

This legacy estate parcel includes beautiful high end furnishings, rugs and lighting. Exclusions apply for personal items and select antiques.
