South Harrison Township has rural scenery and well-rated schools

South Harrison Township is a sprawling rural community in New Jersey’s Gloucester County. The New Jersey Legislature formed the township in the 1880s and became another facet of Gloucester County’s massively successful agricultural and industrial ventures. To this day, the county is one of the chief food producers not only for New Jersey but also for the continental United States. Quiet residential streets lead to excellent schools, serene memorial parks and lively local businesses.

Farmland surrounds Colonial Revivals, bungalows and ranch-style homes

Tall homes sit along long country roads, with blocks of homes broken up by dense forests and vast fields and farmland. The township’s residential landscape is comprised mainly of single-family homes on large lots, with sweeping views of the surrounding countryside and a small collection of condominiums and townhouses. Tall but simple Colonial Revivals line Harrisonville Road, the township’s main thoroughfare, featuring covered front porches and plenty of yard space for cultivating a garden or playing lawn games. Elsewhere in the township, there are also single-story bungalows and ranch-style homes that offer similar amenities and spacious interiors, allowing homeowners to take advantage of every inch of living space. Most homes also feature paved driveways, garages and ample street parking, with home prices ranging from $225,000 for smaller bungalows to $905,000 or more for larger colonial houses and country estates.
