The Heron

Perched over a peninsula on Candlewood Lake, The Heron offers remarkable views of the water. The front balcony offers an unparalleled front row seat to the famous Candlewood Lake Annual 4th of July fireworks.

With the exception of the guest bathroom, EVERY room in this house has lake views.

This 35’ long room is the heart of the Heron’s appeal. Reclaimed hardwood floors, a traditional wood burning fireplace, and exposed wood beams make this a serene oasis. Observe the waves and wildlife from the two 10 foot wide windows.

New Stainless steel appliances accent the timeless design of the original handmade custom cabinetry.  An abundance of counter and storage space, an oversized sink and plenty of sunlight will make cooking enjoyable.

One of two full baths, this fully renovated bathroom is the ONLY room in the entire house without lake views. Ample space and lighting and a full sized tub for soaking after a long day out on the lake.

This large guestroom features a built in storage system and cedar closet to keep everything organized.  Soft carpeting, cool air conditioning and the sound of the shoreline to help lull anyone to sleep.

Enjoy a spectacular view up Candlewood Lake from your nine-foot wide bedroom window. Catch the sunrise as you wake up or drift off while watching the stars reflecting off the calm waters.

This room features a cedar closet, custom built-ins, desk space, air conditioning……and a private, fully restored mid-century modern bathroom.

This rare 1950’s Corallin Pink Bathroom trio by American Standard has been fully restored to offer modern performance, vintage chic and contemporary appeal.

Enjoy all that Candlewood has to offer from the privacy of your own home. 250 feet of private waterfront only a few steps away. Kayak? Canoe? Try Stand Up Paddle Boarding! All without having to set foot off your property. Stow your toys securely on your private shore, so you can get on the lake before getting to work.

Why make the trek to Vermont for Fall foliage when you can watch the seasons change right from home? Grab a mug of hot cider on the porch and breathe in the crisp air while contemplating the colors reflected on the waters. Launch a late season kayak tour from your private beach and catch the fog rolling over the serene waters on a cool October morning.

In the winter, lace up your skates and clear a spot on the ice to turn the lake into your own expansive rink. Or strap on your cross country skis and explore the 60 miles of shore length. For the adventurous, ice fishing allows you to lay claim to one of the top fishing destinations just a stone’s throw from your home.

When the snow begins to melt, witness the wildlife emerging from its winter slumber. Listen to the coo of the turtle doves and watch the cormorants emerge from an underwater hunt while the heron stands perched on the shore. It’ll be the perfect opportunity to dust off your paddle board and shake off your own winter doldrums as the lake reawakens. 

Who said #lakelife was just about sunny days on a boat?
