Relocating to Southbury

Most buyers on Candlewood are coming from New York, Westchester, or Fairfield County. This is who helps them land right.

A Lake Town With Both Kinds of Access

A relocating buyer who isn't sure yet whether they want a marina slip or just public lake access can find both in Southbury without picking a different town later. Chelsea Stinson works this lake directly and can walk through the real trade-offs.

Why Relocating Buyers Choose Southbury

The state launch at 210 Scout Road, a real marina at Lakeside, and I-84 and Route 34 access make Southbury a practical landing spot for a buyer still working out how they'll actually use the water.

Why Relocating Buyers Work With Chelsea

Chelsea is licensed in both Connecticut and New York, so a New York-based buyer can work with her directly. Remote touring is part of the process for anyone relocating from out of the area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I tour homes remotely before moving?

Yes, and remote touring options are part of the process for buyers relocating from out of the area.

Should I prioritize a marina slip when relocating here?

Not necessarily. The public state launch covers a lot of boating needs without one. Chelsea walks through what actually fits your plans.

Southbury

What relocation looks like in Southbury

One of two Lake Lillinonah towns that also borders Lake Zoar, with both the state boat launch and a marina.

Southbury is one of only two Lake Lillinonah towns that also border Lake Zoar (Newtown is the other), and it's the one with Zoar's official state boat launch at 210 Scout Road, plus its own marina, Lakeside Marine Base.

Why people choose it
Buyers who want the most boating infrastructure on the Zoar side of the two dual-lake towns, a state launch and a marina in the same town.
Nearby
The state boat launch at 210 Scout Road and Lakeside Marine Base, both on Lake Zoar. Convenient to I-84 and Route 34.
The trade-off
Zoar's longer, river-like runs rather than Lillinonah's quieter coves, traded for the most public and private boating access of any Lillinonah town.
