Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath Cape Cod located in the Candlewood Echoes community of Sherman, CT. Situated near the northern shores of Squantz Pond and New Fairfield, this neighborhood provides direct beach access for swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and winter ice sports.

Inside, a generous open floor plan seamlessly connects the living and family rooms to a dining area featuring custom built-ins, a corner curio, and flexible space for a home office. The spacious eat-in kitchen is detailed with ample cabinetry, a pantry, and rustic vaulted wood ceilings. It steps out to a covered side porch that leads down to a sprawling backyard with a fire pit.

The main level includes a serene primary bedroom alongside an updated full bathroom, which showcases a glass-enclosed brick-tiled shower, wainscoting, and newer fixtures. Upstairs, the loft-style second bedroom maximizes space with built-in drawers and under-eaves storage. Downstairs, the unfinished walk-out lower level provides abundant storage, laundry facilities, and direct access to the back lawn.

This home boasts significant mechanical updates, including a brand-new well pump, a new hot water heater, and a newer asphalt roof. Offering low HOA fees, low taxes, and efficient oil heat, the property delivers excellent value. It features convenient gravel driveway parking just steps from the door and is located approximately 60 minutes from Manhattan, providing easy access to highways and the Metro-North.
