10,000 Sq Ft Modern Masterpiece with Unrivaled Candlewood Lake Vistas - Suspended above Connecticut's largest lake, this re-envisioned contemporary estate commands dramatic 180-degree panoramas across Candlewood Lake and the rolling hills beyond. Spanning just shy of 10,000 square feet (note - town does not include partial finished basement, enclosed porch and guest suite as living space) of sophisticated interiors, served by a private elevator and wrapped in multiple terraces, this residence pairs striking modern design with timeless elegance and nearly 7 acres of wooded privacy. Originally built in 1984 with latest transformation in 2022 by AIA architect Leigh Overland, the home offers twelve beautifully conceived rooms, including 6-7 restful bedrooms and 4.5 baths. A serene principal suite anchors the private wing, complete with a spa-inspired retreat. The sleek chef's kitchen, open to an inviting eat-in area and a glass-framed family room, serves as the heart of daily living. A formal dining room provides an elegant setting for memorable gatherings, while three fireplaces (2 gas and a wood burning in the principal bedroom) enrich the home with warmth and ambiance. An enclosed sunroom welcomes morning light, and a private guest apartment creates its own secluded sanctuary. Expansive walls of glass blur the line between indoors and outdoors, filling every space with natural light and framing postcard-perfect water vistas. Morning coffee against a watercolor sunrise
