"Solaria," an architectural marvel, is a unique 3,574 sq ft Ranch originally constructed in the 1970s by renowned local architect Malcolm Wells, known as “the father of modern earth-sheltered architecture”. It is partially underground, with three walls encased in earth, offering exceptional climate-control benefits. The home sits on almost 5-acres of lush land, offering a private retreat and outdoor sanctuary. The main entry opens to a bright, vaulted living room centered around a cozy stone fireplace. This space seamlessly flows into the kitchen and dining area and features a long decorative shelf. The inviting kitchen boasts all-white cabinetry, updated stainless steel appliances—including a chef's propane range—a breakfast area, and an open pass-through window to the dining room, which can be closed for more privacy. All three bedrooms are spacious. The primary suite stands out with the home's original beams, an ensuite full bath, and backyard access. A second bedroom offers a fun loft area for storage or a hangout spot. The home includes a pair of SMART washer and dryers and two additional full bathrooms. Extra bonus rooms, including a former zen yoga/meditation space now used as a studio, are located at the opposite end. Multiple access points lead to the expansive backyard and chlorine pool. The nearly 5-acre property also boasts a tranquil koi pond, a brook, a shed, and ample space for outdoor hobbies. Discover the secluded tranquility of Shamong, a hidden South Jersey gem within the Pinelands National Reserve. The land offers proximity to the Mullica and Batsto Rivers and the charm of roadside blueberry stands. Enjoy an easy 45-minute drive to either Philadelphia or the iconic Jersey Shore along with a quick 8 minute drive to local grocers.
