There are homes—and then there are homes that make a statement with intention 43 Southwood Drive is one of them. Partially designed by Mark Stumer of Mojo Stumer—the award-winning New York–based firm known for its luxury residences throughout the Hamptons and Manhattan—this nearly one-acre estate in Cherry Hill’s coveted Wilderness Run neighborhood represents something increasingly rare: a home where every detail has been thoughtfully considered. Offering approximately 4,800 square feet, 4 bedrooms, and 5 baths, the home is both expansive and beautifully proportioned. From the moment you enter, a grand floating curved staircase rises with quiet elegance—its form as sculptural as it is functional. A secondary spiral staircase leads to a private library, reflecting a design that thoughtfully balances beauty and livability. The main level effortlessly blends warmth and sophistication. The family room features soaring ceilings, skylights, a fireplace, wet bar, and custom built-ins, while multiple living spaces provide exceptional flexibility. Walls of Pella windows transform natural light into a defining architectural feature. The kitchen is both refined and purposeful—featuring Sub-Zero, Wolf, Bosch, and JennAir appliances, an oversized island with gas cooking and seating, custom cabinetry with pull-outs, refrigerator drawers, a prep sink, and a spacious pantry. A skylit eat-in area opens seamlessly to a Trex deck, creating a natural connection between indoor and outdoor living. The formal dining room is a true showpiece. Handcrafted Italian mirrored panels reveal a thoughtfully designed built-in feature wall with three distinct sections: a sophisticated bar complete with wine storage and glass shelving, a dedicated area for serving pieces and display, and additional cabinetry with shelving and larger drawers for functional storage—all accentuated by dramatic backlighting to elevate every gathering into an unforgettable experience. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a true sense of retreat, complete with custom built-ins and a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, expansive shower, and a distinctive glass block wall that welcomes soft natural light while preserving privacy. Additional bedrooms are generously sized and thoughtfully designed, complemented by well-appointed baths including a Jack-and-Jill layout, a dedicated office, and a flexible bonus or gym space. A cedar closet and above-garage storage add both function and convenience. Outdoors, a resurfaced gunite pool and spa with diving board, expansive paver patio, Trex deck, and pool house create a private resort-style setting—perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. Located within the highly regarded Cherry Hill school system and one of the area’s most prestigious neighborhoods, 43 Southwood Drive is more than a home—it is a carefully crafted architectural experience. Homes of this caliber are exceptionally rare. In Wilderness Run, this is a truly special opportunity.
