Stunning Grand Lodge-style home with a commanding presence and utterly breathtaking views on 24+ elevated, private acres. The beautiful stone and wood facade blends seamlessly into the gently sloping hillside, providing a sense of warmth amidst a natural setting. This impressive 4 BDR/4.5 bath home is surrounded by verdant lawns, beautiful perennial gardens and a spectacular gunite pool. Upon entering the house, a large foyer opens into a sunken living room with stone fireplace and cathedral ceilings. In both the living and dining room, one is immediately drawn to the large picture windows with long views over the Connecticut valley and hillsides. Beyond the dining room is another open floor plan which includes a family room and spacious eat-in Chef's kitchen with large center island and high-end appliances. The kitchen has direct access to the wrap around deck where palatial views can be enjoyed from inside or out. Primary bedroom en-suite is located down the hall. On the second level, there is a lovely sitting room/library with built-in bookshelves and 3 sizeable bedrooms including a guest suite. The lower level provides ample space for an exercise room, a workshop and enormous entertainment space with built-ins. 3 car garage, elevator, generator. Just minutes to the center of Sherman and Candlewood Lake. 90 minutes to NYC. This setting is both serene and sensational.
