A Rare Architectural Masterpiece in Linwood, NJ. Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired and a true gem for mid-century modern enthusiasts, this extraordinary three-bedroom, three-bath estate is an unparalleled opportunity for the most discerning buyer. Nestled at the end of a long private driveway off Candlewood cul-de-sac, this meadowfront acre property offers views from Ocean City to Atlantic City, blending natural beauty with iconic design. A circular front drive provides ample parking and even a dream space for young race car enthusiasts. But the real magic begins when you step inside—soaring ceilings, exposed beams & ceilings, stained glass windows true to the style, exquisite stone walls, and hardwood floors throughout showcase the authenticity and craftsmanship of this timeless architectural style. The home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully renovated to honor its mid-century modern roots, with careful attention to detail throughout. At the heart of the home is a stunningly remodeled & upgraded kitchen, complete with new appliances, a large center island, and a breakfast bar, all seamlessly flowing into the dining area, family room, and den—a perfect layout for both intimate gatherings and grand entertaining. Anchoring the living space is a magnificent wood-burning fireplace, crafted from stone and featuring a striking copper hood. There are hardwood floors through the property as well as an open riser wood staircase. The first-floor bedroom is a retreat of its own, featuring three closets and adjacent to a full bathroom, while the second floor boasts two architecturally distinct bedrooms, each with its own full bath. The primary suite offers a wall of closet space, an elegant sitting room and a private balcony, where you can take in the sunrises and serenity of the surrounding landscape. Step outside to your private oasis—a covered slate patio, wrought iron fenced yard, expansive garden space, a built-in barbecue grill and a separate storage building/shed, along with a fiberglass, chlorine, sun-heated in-ground swimming pool, —perfect for enjoying the outdoors. The 2 car tiled garage also has an extra new refrigerator and the large laundry area has a newer washer and dryer. The roof is a authentic and original copper roof, patinaed perfectly. There are copper pipes throughout this home, a newer hot water heater and both AC units have been replaced in the past five years. Homes like this simply don’t exist anywhere else—a magical, one-of-a-kind property that will only belong to the one buyer who truly appreciates its beauty, rarity, and craftsmanship. Located in a top-rated school district and only minutes to the beaches of Ocean City, Margate, Ventnor, and Atlantic City.
