135 Canaan Mountain Road

Canaan, CT 06031

A wonderful opportunity on Canaan Mountain that has two homes and frontage on the Wangum Lake Brook. The CTDEEP has identified this upper section of the brook as a cold water stream, which means that it is a rare and important habitat containing fish like Brook Trout . In addition this property features an upper home with a large two car garage underneath, a spacious two bedrooms above with a generous deck to sit outside and enjoy the outdoors. The lower one bedroom cabin sits close by the stream, this is more of a 3 season cabin as it is heated by a wood stove. The location is for the nature enthusiast, as the property backs into thousands of acres of protected and conserved lands either owned by the State of Ct and the Great Mountain Forest or under conservation easements with the Nature Conservancy and other Land Trusts. Unending lands of wilderness to explore and have adventures on!, There is a view easement on 1.62 acres and the neighbors have an existing option to purchase this 1.62 acres if desired. We just have finished soil tests on the property and TAHD will require that a new septic system for the main house be installed and, that at the best, the septic system for the cabin will have to be repaired. All at buyers expense. Estimated costs are 45k for the main house and 35k for cabin, so it has to be cash, not financed.
