Haddonfield's historic charm and prehistoric appeal
A charming suburban borough 10 miles outside of Philadelphia, Haddonfield is a quintessential small town with brick sidewalks, cozy family restaurants and top-rated schools. The town, home to slightly more than 12,000 residents, lights up like a Hallmark movie during the holiday season, as wreaths adorn old-fashioned lamp posts and horse-drawn carriages carry carolers down the streets. “It’s one of the only walkable downtowns in South Jersey,” says Eliza Babcock, Realtor with Keller Williams Realty. “It’s got that true downtown feel with businesses set up in beautiful old Colonial buildings.”
Haddonfield’s distinctive vintage character is in part attributed to a 1970s Historic District ordinance, which prevented developers from replacing the centuries-old storefronts with strip malls and national chains. Settled by Quakers in the early 1700s, Haddonfield still bears the marks left by both British and American troops during the Revolutionary War. Long before that, however, dinosaurs staked their claim on these Camden County grounds. In 1858, a Hadrosaurus skeleton was excavated in what is now the family-friendly Pennypacker Park. A replica of this dinosaur stands downtown, near locally adored restaurants and specialty shops. “What really sets it apart is that it is community-oriented,” Babcock says. “Everything is together, and it fosters that friendly, community-oriented sense.”

A century of American architecture and newly added condos
Oak, pine and maple trees tower over even the most impressive of homes in Haddonfield, where sidewalks line most residential lanes and historic estates might sit next to contemporary condominiums. “The entire canon of American architectural style can be found here,” says Babcock. “You’ve got beautiful Victorians, Colonials and newer craftsman-style houses.” The median list price for a home in Haddonfield is $835,000, compared to New Jersey’s median price of $525,000 and the national median price of about $406,000. Properties stay on the market for an average of three weeks before they sell.

Boutiques, bistros and breweries on Kings Highway
Centrally located in the borough, downtown Haddonfield is home to hundreds of niche boutiques, cafes, bistros, breweries and a few upscale white-tablecloth restaurants. Because of the walkable strip along Kings Highway, downtown Haddonfield has become one of Camden County’s most popular shopping and dining destinations. Residents can grab groceries at Haddon Culinary, an elevated market, and ACME Markets is also nearby for standard grocery shopping. Several historic churches established in the early 1800s line this downtown strip, including First Baptist Church, Grace Episcopal Church and First Presbyterian Church. All boasting gray stone Gothic Revival architecture with stained-glass windows, these churches feature turrets from which church bells ring out.
Tucked inside one of the downtown alleys on Kings Highway, a sculpture of a Hadrosaurus dinosaur commemorates the 1858 discovery of a nearly complete set of dinosaur fossils in Haddonfield. This excavation led to Dr. Joseph Leidy’s groundbreaking presentation on the first factual anatomy of a dinosaur, which then allowed scientists to understand what is known today about these prehistoric creatures. The Hadrosaurus was named the official state dinosaur of New Jersey in 1991.
On the north side of Haddonfield in Cherry Hill, Towne Place at Garden State Park is a retail area with big-name department stores, chain restaurants, Wegman’s, Costco and Trader Joe’s. About a mile from there, the Ellisburg Circle Shopping Center has fitness studios, storefronts, eateries and Whole Foods. Situated between the two shopping areas, Jefferson Cherry Hill Hospital was renovated in 2020 to include a seven-story patient pavilion and a new ER department.

Fossils found where walking trails weave through Pennypacker Park
Pennypacker Park is a 32-acre recreation area that extends for 2 miles across the east side of Haddonfield. A section of the park where the dinosaur excavation occurred in the mid-1800s is part of the National Register of Historic Places. A wooded walking trail follows the Cooper River, which feeds into Evans Pond. The park also features playgrounds and athletic fields. Haddonfield has a few smaller neighborhood parks, including Mountwell Park, where there are play structures for different ages and shaded sand pits. On the south side, the private Tavistock Country Club features an 18-hole golf course.
