An Authentic Log Home, a Guest Cottage, and a 40×60 Steel Barn on 2.6 Private Acres. Real solid-log construction, a full second residence, and a barn built for anything — rural Salem County, just outside Elmer. I've been selling South Jersey since 2002, and only a handful of properties have ever done what this one does. 385 Upper Neck Road isn't a house with a few outbuildings behind it — it's a self-contained compound: a genuine log home, a complete second living space above a three-car garage, and a steel pole barn most tradesmen would give their eye teeth for, set on 2.6 rural acres in Pittsgrove Township, just outside Elmer. Begin with the word that matters most: authentic. This is a real log home, raised from solid logs — not a stick-built house dressed up with a log veneer, and you feel the difference the moment you step inside. Intricate timber work runs throughout, a stone fireplace anchors the great room, and a loft looks down over the whole space. The master bedroom opens to a tiled master bath. Two more bedrooms and a full bath sit on the lower level, and below that a finished basement adds a large rec room and a utility room with laundry and newer HVAC. Step out to the enclosed side porch and onto an elevated deck over the grounds — three bedrooms, two baths, over 2,000 square feet, done right. The kitchen is the heart of the home, wide open to the great room with no wall between where you cook and where everyone gathers. A large custom countertop anchors the space with room for stools, finished in stainless: double oven, cooktop, gooseneck sink, matching fridge, and a tile backsplash. A brick-tile floor runs from the kitchen down the hall to the lower-level bedrooms, tying the main level together. Then there's the second home. Above the three-car garage sits a complete living space of its own — living room, full bedroom, full bath, and a stove — heated and cooled independently with natural gas and central air. The garage below runs as an office today, but three cars pull in without a second thought. Put the two homes together and you have what families rarely find: a genuine multigenerational setup. An aging parent gets their own front door, kitchen, and bath; a grad back home gets real space, not a childhood bedroom. Two complete living situations on one deed — and that's before the barn. And now the star. The 40-by-60 pole barn is built from steel I-beams — not wood — with a radiant-heated concrete floor fed by an on-demand natural-gas system, so the slab is warm underfoot in January. The front doors stand roughly ten feet tall; the side door rises a full thirteen. Pull a tractor-trailer straight in, or bring in tall equipment without a thought. A phase converter steps the incoming power up to three phase, so it's capable of supporting serious machinery, and a fifteen-foot covered overhang gives outdoor protection. For anyone with equipment, a trade, or a passion long past an ordinary garage, this building alone is worth the drive. The rest is thought through the same way. Natural gas serves the property on two meters — one for the house, one for the barn and cottage. The grounds are fully asphalt-paved with lighted stone entry posts. The rear of the lot carries a maintained utility easement — open, mown green space that keeps your back boundary clear. Location gives you rural without the isolation. Green Branch — a public recreation area with ballfields, soccer, and trails — is a short drive away, and the children attend Pittsgrove Township schools, feeding Arthur P. Schalick High School. While Pittsgrove is about as get-away-from-it-all as South Jersey gets, Routes 40, 77, and 55 keep Philadelphia and the shore each about an hour off. If you've been waiting for the real thing — real logs, real acreage, room for the whole family, and a barn you could build a life or a business around — the smart money buys this one. Properties like 385 Upper Neck Road do not come along twice.
