A standout opportunity for builders seeking a fast, high-return project. These two contiguous parcels at 76 and 78 Candle Hill Road offer over 2 acres of flat, buildable land in one of New Fairfield's most desirable Candlewood Lake neighborhoods. The terrain is unusually level for the area, making site work straightforward and cost-efficient-an immediate advantage for any builder looking to move quickly from planning to construction. The lots residentially zoned, and positioned in an established community where new homes consistently draw strong interest. With two side-by-side parcels, the development potential is exceptional: build two highly marketable homes or design one impressive estate. The location adds even more value, offering quick access to Candlewood Lake, town amenities, schools, and the New York border-ideal for attracting both local and out-of-state buyers. Flat land, a prime neighborhood, and rare dual-lot availability make this a project that checks every box for speed, efficiency, and resale potential. Whether you're a builder, investor, or a future homeowner envisioning a custom retreat, these parcels offer a versatile and valuable canvas in a sought-after community. **(Please note: 76 Candle Hill Rd MLS#24151148 and 78 Candle Hill Rd MLS#24151152)
