Before pandemic I started working remotely and soon noticed that, like OP, working alone doesn't suit me.
I solved this by joining a co-working hub that offers offices to remote workers / entrepreneurs. My employer pays for the hub membership.
I drive to our offices around once a month, but rest of the time I sit in a room with an accountant and gym owner. They are fun to chat and go to lunch with but they don't interrupt me with work related things.
As a bonus I get to meet and hang with professionals in many different areas and I find that really satisfying.
If I change company I work for, I just get the new employer to pay for the office. If I need to move, I prefer cities that have this kind of co-working place.
This is quite doable, here in Finland at least and while it has some downsides, it has worked for me!
