About the Home

Nestled in the desirable Candlewood Lake Community of Hollywyle, 1 Sylvan Road offers a rare combination of privacy, very little traffic, lake charm, beach access and a boat dock slip (additional $200 a year). Set on a secluded multilevel lot, this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home is part of a private lake association that includes transferable multi-year dock rights, a beach picnic area and playground, perfect for enjoying the lake lifestyle all year long. The home's new roof (2018), ample levelish parking for 8-10 vehicles (unheard of in lake communities) and good sized decks off both the kitchen and living room make outdoor entertaining easy and enjoyable along with seasonal lake views. Inside, the home features an oversized step-down living room with 10' beamed ceiling, a stunning fieldstone wood burning fireplace and two sets of sliders that bring the outdoors right into the living room. The kitchen features a breakfast bar for 5 and a separate seating area for 6-10 guests. The home features three bedrooms including a spacious primary suite with crown molding, double closets, and a private half bath offering ample space to expand into a full bath if desired. The main bathroom has been thoughtfully updated with modern finishes including a granite countertop. Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat or a full time residence this home is the perfect balance of comfort/convenience and Candlewood Lake charm.
