"Easy Like Sunday Morning" :: Welcome to 41 Candlewood Road, a thoughtfully updated home in a picturesque setting just steps from some of Fairfield's favorites. Rest easy knowing the major improvements have been taken care of, including roof, gutters, Hardie siding, windows, boiler and water heater. The rear yard is a park-like setting, with expansive level lawn, mature trees, garden beds, storage shed, and vinyl privacy fencing (plus addt'l fencing for a fully enclosed yard). The interior is thoughtfully designed, with a spacious living room open to an updated kitchen with dining nook, banquet (with storage), and access to the rear deck and grill area. Three nicely sized bedrooms enjoy access to two full bathrooms, all on the main level. Subtle details like floating shelving, stylish light fixtures, updated entry doors, and a cheery color palette set the scene for laid-back living. The lower level showcases the functionality of a true full basement - now finished with vinyl plank flooring, sheetrock walls, overhead lighting, and heat. The bonus room includes a theater and playroom, with barn doors to a cozy private office and laundry/storage/mechanical room. If you want to feel tucked away but close to it all, this is "the one". Not minutes but SECONDS to shopping and dining. One block from McKinley Elementary School & playground, and under 1 mile to Fairfield Woods Library and Fairfield Warde High School. Enjoy Fairfield's 5 pristine beaches & lake just in time for Summer!
