Suburban haven for commuters, families and professionals
Springdale, a community in Cherry Hill east of Interstate 295 and the New Jersey Turnpike, is home to corporate professionals, celebrities, commuters and working families alike. TD Bank, one of the top 10 largest U.S. banks, has administrative offices 4 miles from Springdale, and Melitta USA, a coffee roasting plant, is blocks away. “We see buyers with almost every budget in the Springdale area, and they can usually find what they need,” says Eliza Babcock, a Realtor with the Prism Homes Team of Keller Williams Realty Cherry Hill. Babcock lives west of Springdale and has lived in the area most of her life. She’s sold real estate here for the past 14 years. “Commuters going north or south love the neighborhoods in Springdale. It’s a lot of '50s and '60s tract developments, with some new construction thrown in. Some of the original owners still live here.” With hiking trails, sports complexes, shopping centers and highly rated schools, Cherry Hill’s Springdale is a suburban haven for those who work in Philadelphia or the South Jersey region.
Canadian financial giant, TD Bank, has its US headquarters located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, not far from Springdale.
Springdale is truly an international city hosting such larger employers as the German coffee company, Melitta.

Vintage community of classic and custom-built homes
The median home price in Springdale is $558,000, over 25 percent higher than the national median. “It’s hard to talk about median prices here because the housing options are so widespread,” Babcock says. “In The Woods subdivision, you have wonderful townhouses under $300,000. Homes in the Voken Tract section can list for as high as $3 million. Muhammad Ali once had a home in that area.” While Springdale offers a range of properties, most are colonial-style single-family residences built in the 1960s and 1970s with attached two-car garages and landscaping that gives them heightened curb appeal. Bold contemporary homes with eye-catching geometries and custom-built mansions with dramatic stone or Tudor fronts also grace the tree-lined streets of this suburban community. “Springdale homes have the amenities people love, like walk-in closets and large bedrooms,” Babcock says. Townhouses and condominiums are also available along Evesham Road, within walking distance of NJ Transit buses.
Springdale is recognized for its single homes although some condos and townhomes can be found there.
Many streets in Springdale are lined with large, single homes such as this Colonial Revival house.

From Jewish delis to the Springdale Farmers Market
Springdale is solidly residential, yet along its borders are essential stores like ShopRite on Evesham Road and The Kibitz Room, a traditional Jewish deli, on Springdale Road. “The Kibitz Room and Radin’s Delicatessen are independently owned and awesome — incredible eats,” Babcock says. In addition to churches, Springdale also has several synagogues, such as Congregation Kol Ami and Temple Beth Sholom.
The nearby Saddlehill Winery offers a tasting room that looks out over 70 acres of vineyards and preserved farmland. South of the winery, shoppers will find a Target and dozens of retail stores, restaurants and entertainment outlets, such as the AMC Voorhees 16 cinemas. The Voorhees Town Center is a few blocks over, featuring a Boscov’s department store. The Promenade at Sagemore on Route 73 is home to most of the upscale retailers in the area, including an Apple Store, a White House/Black Market and an L.L. Bean.
To the north, Springdale Farms is Cherry Hill’s only working farm. It was founded in 1949 when much of the town was farmland. Family-owned for 75 years, the Springdale Farmers Market sells fresh fruits and vegetables and has a garden center where residents can pick up new plantings. “There are hayrides in the fall to pick pumpkins,” Babcock says. “The pies are amazing!”
The Kibitz Room is a well-known Jewish deli in Springdale serving hearty sandwiches on hose-baked breads and bagels.
The Saddlehill Winery is a fun spot for a tasting, a meal, or just explore.

Hiking trails, golf, team sports and swim clubs
Part of Springdale’s suburban charm stems from its ample recreational facilities, like the multiple hiking trails that snake through the “Magic Forest” near Bunker Hill Park. The Legacy Club to the south features over 170 acres of fairways and greens, a public restaurant and a members-only lounge. On the eastern side of town, residents have baseball, soccer and football fields, all part of the Garden State Rotary Complex and the Decou Lacrosse and Soccer Field Complex. The complex is also the site of a playground, pickleball courts and an outdoor roller rink. “Swim culture is very strong here,” Babcock says. “Willowdale, Woodcrest and Charleston all have competitive swim clubs. The Cherry Bowl is the biggest swim event of the summer. We hop around with who hosts it.”

Cherry Hill crime and snowfall numbers

Route 70 and Springdale Road improvements
The New Jersey Department of Transportation has invested $151 million in the five-year Route 70 Corridor Improvement Project to be completed by 2026. The project involves removing and replacing gas and water mains under the roadway and sidewalks and pavement above. “Route 70 is an important east-west highway, and the construction has obstructed commerce and neighborhood access,” Babcock says. “The improvements are well worth it, but homebuyers should be up-to-speed on how the construction might affect their commute time.”
Springdale Road has also seen its share of construction and improvements. New curbing, sidewalk installation and bike lanes are just a few upgrades made to this central thoroughfare.
