NO FEE; YEAR ROUND CANDLEWOOD LAKE lease available (yes, summers included) with possibility of renewal. $4,500 plus utilities plus security/ furnishings (damage) deposit. Perfect country home for those looking for a weekend or winter retreat, or year-round sanctuary with views overlooking Candlewood Lake. This is a 5-star Airbnb home, especially well-suited for professional singles or couples seeking "work-from-home" option post-pandemic; also a terrific part-time weekend retreat for those who just want to escape NYC (90 minute drive!). Due to the nature of the furnishings, proximity to lake, and "attractive nuisances", this home is not suitable for children or pets. Stepping Stones features excellent high-speed 5G broadband wifi throughout house. Classic, charming, and beautifully furnished, this stone "cottage" on Candlewood Lake, 70 miles north of NYC, is the perfect weekend retreat. Lake views, billiards, deck, grill, Aga kitchen, and quiet forest setting. It is located 5 minutes off route 7, about 10 minutes from Danbury CT (nearest Metro North Station) or 30 minutes from Brewster, New York (fasted Metro-north route) . The gemutlich ambiance of an original 30s lake house with its fieldstone walls, pine shiplap paneling, vaulted ceilings, wood-burning fireplace, and period antiques is what makes this house so charming. Flooded with natural light, with lake or lush green forest seen from every room, this is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the feeling of home. House, deck, yard, parking, and lake views. Lake access through Lynn Deming Park, (private resident-only Town beachfront park, 2 miles away) or possible access through owner's lakefront property across the street. Weber grill and hot tub right off the deck are yours to use. Two bedrooms (one king, one queen) and two full bathrooms (one with shower, one with tub/shower combo) are on the main level, and a sleeping loft with two double beds. NO PETS. Tenant pays all utilities (electric, propane, oil, Wifi-cable, garbage). Turn-key and fully furnished, including linens, kitchenware, etc. This is a high-end 5-Star Airbnb listing being offered long-term (one- or two-year lease). No pets. Please, if you are interested in a viewing, start with an email that describes your situation and desired lease terms, the size of your family/group, target move-in date, employment, credit score, etc. Immediate showings available. Provide a phone number for owner to call you. Messages of "schedule a viewing" without any additional information will be ignored. This is FULLY FURNISHED. The house does not have space or storage for any additional furniture. Bring clothing, computer, and your bike or skis :) That's it!
