About This Home

As of October 2020

Stylish mountain lodge meets Candlewood Lake! Hand-hewn tree trunks graced in rich ebony brown envelop the lower front porch framing the gorgeous view of your dock among the juniper trees. The moment you step onto the porch you are greeted with a relaxed lodge feeling from the Vermont crafted adirondack chairs to the well-designed trestle table. A unique feature is the breathtaking cedar wood that lines the entire home from top to bottom. A summer kitchen on the lower floor helps with entertaining when out on the dock. An updated full bath, bedroom with lake view and lots of storage room are also on the lower floor. Going up the stairs one enters the astonishing great room with vaulted ceiling, beams and stone fireplace with ziggurat mantel. The kitchen with cedar cabinets, full bath and master bedroom all exist gracefully around the majestic great room. Large master bedroom has plenty of closet space. The enclosed porch which runs the full length of the home brings the quiet beauty of the lake indoors. An office on the upper floor offers quiet space. The attic has potential for another bedroom. The park-like backyard is a true masterpiece of rock and level layers that allow for peaceful meandering. The bluestone patio for outdoor dining compliments this one of a kind setting. A secluded backyard and 140 feet of waterfront with a private dock are a rare find on the lake. 55 Wood Creek exudes timeless design and style. Authentic lake living awaits you!
