Check out this luxurious log home sitting in the heart of N.J.

Quality and tranquility are the two words used to describe this luxury log home in Franklinville.

The home was designed by architects out of British Columbia who used Western red cedar logs from the same Canadian province. The home was assembled in Canada then disassembled, shipped and rebuilt on-site in Gloucester County.

“It’s really extraordinary,” said Cary Simons of Kurfiss Sotheby’s International Realty, the listing agent. “It’s like something you would see in the Midwest or out West.”

The home built in 2017 has five bedrooms and four full bathrooms. It’s listed for $3.25 million.

The home was built for the seller, who is a home builder. “Everything they did is to the utmost level – the mechanical systems and finishes and quality, but it’s very elegantly done,” she said.

The home is set back far from the road down a long driveway. You climb up the wraparound porch and go into the entryway that has 200-year-old reclaimed barn boards on the walls. The great room, just beyond it, has an A-frame wall of windows, a two story stone fireplace and English Oak floors.

The kitchen has designer cabinetry, a custom ventilation hood and a walk-in pantry.

The primary bedroom suite and a guest suite are on opposite sides of the first floor. Three more bedrooms and an open loft space that looks down on the great room are on the second floor.

The lower level has a kitchenette, a gym, a family room, a full bathroom and a secondary laundry room.

The property also has an Amish-built, post and beam barn with five stalls, cameras to monitor the horses, a wash stall and tack room with lockers, a kitchenette, a guest bedroom and bathroom suite and a loft space that’s been used for entertaining.

There are 8 acres of pastures that have water and solar-powered electric fencing. There’s a 100-foot by 180-foot outdoor riding ring with irrigation and a 60-foot round pen, plus riding trails throughout the wooded property.

“You just enter a natural relaxation mode when you pull back there,” Simons said. “It is so peaceful and tranquil.”

The home is located in a rural area near other farms but grocery and other essentials are just 15 minutes away. A winery, White Oaks Country Club and the Franklinville Inn, which has a restaurant, are just a mile away. Vineland, Millville and Glassboro, which have a small theater, galleries and museums, are nearby. And Philadelphia is about 35 miles away.

The buyer will likely be someone who is interested in having animals or a car collector or other hobbyist who can reconfigure the modular walls in the barn to cater it to their needs, she said.

There has been interest in the house from local people, folks from upstate New York and New York City.

The property could be used as a primary residence or a retreat and a caretaker could live in the barn’s living quarters, Simons said.

“People are in awe by it,” she said. “They’re blown away by the attention to detail, the views and the overall aesthetic.”
