*Highest & best due Friday 4/18 at 5pm* Rare Candlewood Lake Opportunity - Bring Your Vision! Step into history and create your dream lakefront escape with this one-of-a-kind property on nearly an acre of land along the coveted shores of Candlewood Lake in New Milford.

Now fully gutted to the studs, the hard work is already done: new septic, well, electrical, and plumbing systems are in place. Includes your own private dock. The layout includes a separate-entry lower level with a full bathroom - the perfect setup for an Airbnb or guest suite. Kitchen cabinets are included and ready for installation. All that's left is your finishing touch. Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat, full-time residence, or investment property, this is a rare chance to own a slice of Connecticut lakefront history - and make it completely your own vibe!
