If you are looking for a home in a lake community, the Candlewood Shores development in Brookfield should be on your list. The community is very accessible, right off of Candlewood Lake road and is only 5 minutes from I-84 and Route 7.
With almost all lake communities, there is a variety of home styles, sizes & price ranges. Many of the homes in Candlewood Shores sit on around a 7000 square foot lot. Some have a garage, others don’t. Some of the original 1950s ranches & raised ranches have been added on to over the years, while others remain modest homes. There has been some construction of new homes on some of the remaining lots. Even some of the small homes sitting directly on Candlewood Lake have been torn down to make way for much larger homes.
Because there are large variances in sizes, styles & waterfront vs. non waterfront homes, prices are all over the map. There are currently 18 homes on the market in Candlewood Shores (per CMLS 10/5/09), with prices ranging from $209,900 to $1,875,000. The average listing price is $705,800, which is weighed heavily because there are 5 waterfront homes listed over $1 million. The median listing price is $385,000.
Candlewood Shores offers what many consider to be the best beach on Candlewood Lake. There is a playground and sport field facilities within the community. There are limited boat moorings, on top of a boat ramp. Throughout the year, community events are held.

I've been quite busy for the last couple of weeks. I have been busy trying help new clients either find & close on a home prior to the November 30th deadline, looking to be moved in by the new year, or looking to move in to the right house if the deal makes sense to them. Buyers are not looking to make a 20% profit on their home in a years time, but rather stay for 7-8 years & purchase a larger home.Sellers still need to be realistic on their asking prices so their home will be shown to qualified motivated buyers and should 'play nice' with any reasonable offers, or else the buyers might be opted to go elsewhere.
One of my favorites to go for a run or long walks are in only a few minutes from the Danbury Fair Mall. They are the Hemlock Hills, Pine Mountain & Bennett’s Pond Park in Ridgefield. These three parcels collectively form a 1200+ acre park of open space in the scenic Ridgebury section of Ridgefield. The terrain ranges from very level to steep climbs where you can enjoy great views . The Ives trail will be connect Tarrywile Park & the Wooster Mountain State Park in Danbury to this vast area of of space for a 14 mile walk.
To print out a trail map or learn about about this great natural resource, visit the Ridgefield Open Association’s website.
