Living in Cinnaminson, NJ: Neighborhoods, Home Prices, Schools and Real Estate

Custom Image

Cinnaminson is one of Burlington County’s established suburban communities that gives buyers an appealing combination of neighborhood living, strong transportation options, parks, shopping and access to Philadelphia. Housing is surprisingly diverse. Buyers can find older homes dating back to the late 1800s and early 1900s, traditional ranchers, split levels and colonials from the 1950s through the 1970s, condominiums, townhouses, newer construction and larger homes approaching or exceeding $1 million.

I’m Michaela L. Hartery, a South Jersey Realtor with 31 years of real estate experience. One of the things I like about Cinnaminson is that it offers several very different real estate markets within one township. Someone considering a condo or townhouse may be looking at a completely different price range and lifestyle than a buyer searching for a large four bedroom home on a third of an acre.

What Are the Different Neighborhoods in Cinnaminson Like?

Fountain Farms

Fountain Farms is an established single family neighborhood developed primarily during the 1950s and 1960s. The area includes many three and four bedroom homes, often with basements, garages and lots around a quarter acre.

This is the type of neighborhood that represents what many buyers picture when they think of Cinnaminson: mature streets, traditional suburban homes and established surroundings.

Ravenswood

Ravenswood is another established single family neighborhood, with much of its housing dating from the late 1950s through the 1960s. Home sizes vary considerably, which is important when comparing values within the neighborhood.

Recent MLS sales throughout this portion of Cinnaminson show how strongly condition, square footage and renovations can affect price.

East Riverton

East Riverton has an entirely different character.

This section borders Riverton and includes older detached homes, many originally built from the late 1800s through the 1930s. Houses tend to be smaller and lots can be more compact than in Cinnaminson’s later suburban developments.

Buyers who like older homes and established neighborhoods often find this section interesting.

Sweetwater

Sweetwater offers a lower maintenance housing option. The community includes primarily smaller attached homes from around the late 1980s, commonly with one or two bedrooms.

Recent Bright MLS sales in Sweetwater generally ranged through the upper $200,000s and around $300,000, depending on size and condition.

Cinnaminson Harbour

Cinnaminson Harbour gives buyers another very different lifestyle. The community includes spacious townhomes near the Delaware River and offers amenities including a clubhouse, fitness center, pool and tennis courts. One particularly valuable feature is that the Cinnaminson River LINE station is directly across from the community entrance.

Recent Harbour Boulevard sales were around the $300,000 range for smaller units, while larger and newer properties throughout this attached home market can sell considerably higher.

Cinnaminson Real Estate Market Statistics

Your Bright MLS statistics show a strong and active Cinnaminson housing market.

From July 1, 2025 through July 31, 2026, there were 192 closed residential sales in Cinnaminson Township.

The average list price was $470,298 and the average closed price was $473,422.

The median list price was $434,950 and the median closed price was $435,000.

Homes averaged 31 days on the market, but the median was only 15 days.

Overall, homes sold for approximately 100.87 percent of asking price.

That 15 day median marketing time is important. It tells me that buyers are still moving quickly when the right Cinnaminson home comes on the market at the right price.

What Do Homes Cost in Cinnaminson?

Cinnaminson covers a wide price range.

The lowest closed price in the Bright MLS report was $152,000, while the highest was $1.2 million. The median was $435,000.

Condos and smaller attached homes can be found in the $200,000s and $300,000s.

Traditional single family homes frequently fall throughout the $400,000s and $500,000s depending on size, neighborhood, updates and condition. Recent sales show numerous homes around $500,000 to $600,000.

Larger and more extensively updated homes can move into the $600,000s, $700,000s and $800,000s. Recent sales included $730,000 on Riverton Road, $753,500 on Saratoga Springs Drive, $770,000 on Derby Drive, $820,000 on Exeter Place and $839,000 on Derby Drive.

And the upper end of the market reached $1.2 million with the sale of 62 Sussex Drive.

What Should Cinnaminson Sellers Know?

Cinnaminson is another town where I would never recommend pricing a house simply from the township average.

A Sweetwater condo is not competing with a Fountain Farms single family home.

A 1960s colonial is not necessarily competing with newer construction.

And a 3,000 square foot home in the upper end of the market needs an entirely different pricing and marketing strategy.

The MLS data also shows that the median Cinnaminson home sold during this period was built in 1966, so condition and improvements can make a significant difference in value.

For an established home, buyers may pay particular attention to the roof, HVAC, windows, electrical system, bathrooms, kitchen, basement, garage and overall maintenance.

That does not mean a seller needs to renovate everything.

It means we should determine which improvements will help the sale and which ones are unlikely to give the homeowner a worthwhile return.

Is There Strong Buyer Demand in Cinnaminson?

Yes.

The combination of an approximately 100.87 percent sale to list ratio and a median of only 15 days on the market shows that demand has remained healthy.

But buyers are not blindly purchasing every property.

Some homes in the report sold within a few days while others remained available for months. Price, condition, location and presentation still matter.

That is why the initial pricing strategy is so important.

Commuting From Cinnaminson

Location is one of Cinnaminson’s biggest advantages.

Central Cinnaminson is roughly 14 miles from Philadelphia, although the distance depends on your neighborhood and final destination. Commercial location data for the township puts both I 295 and New Jersey Turnpike Exit 4 at approximately 8 to 9 miles away.

Philadelphia Bridges

For many Cinnaminson residents, the Tacony Palmyra Bridge is approximately three miles away, making Northeast Philadelphia extremely accessible.

The Betsy Ross Bridge is approximately seven miles away from parts of Cinnaminson and connects Philadelphia directly with the Route 90 and Route 73 corridor.

The Ben Franklin Bridge is farther south and provides direct access between Camden and Center City Philadelphia.

Actual commuting time will always depend on traffic and where in Cinnaminson you begin.

The River LINE Is a Major Cinnaminson Advantage

Cinnaminson has something many Burlington County suburbs do not have: its own NJ TRANSIT River LINE station.

Cinnaminson Station offers parking, accessible spaces and bicycle parking.

The River LINE is a 34 mile light rail system connecting Camden and Trenton. It also connects riders with larger transportation networks including PATCO, NJ TRANSIT, SEPTA and Amtrak.

For Philadelphia commuters, the River LINE can be taken to Camden, where riders can connect with PATCO for service into Center City. Cinnaminson’s own circulation plan notes that a River LINE trip from the township to Walter Rand Transportation Center in Camden is approximately 15 minutes.

That gives residents an alternative to driving into Philadelphia every day.

Cinnaminson Parks and Recreation

Cinnaminson has a substantial municipal park system with more than 127 acres of township owned recreational property.

Memorial Park is Cinnaminson’s largest park at approximately 68 acres. It includes baseball and soccer fields, bocce, a hockey rink, a walking path, a natural pond, playground, sledding and exercise hill and pickleball courts.

Wood Park is another major community park and is described by the Township as Cinnaminson’s town center. It includes softball fields, a multipurpose field, tennis and basketball courts, a gazebo and playground. It is also home to community events including summer concerts and the Christmas tree lighting.

Smaller neighborhood parks include Garfield Park, Fountain Farms Park, Ravenswood Park, Extension Park and East Riverton Park.

Swimming in Cinnaminson

One distinction I would make on your website is that Cinnaminson does not operate a traditional township municipal swimming pool.

Instead, local swimming options include independently operated membership clubs such as Pomona Swim Club and Pheasant Run Swim Club. The Township specifically identifies these clubs as independently owned and operated.

Some residential communities also have their own pools. Cinnaminson Harbour, for example, includes a community swimming pool among its amenities.

Shopping and Restaurants in Cinnaminson

Route 130 gives Cinnaminson residents plenty of everyday shopping.

The Shoppes at Cinnaminson is a major shopping center along Route 130 and includes grocery and retail options. Nearby Marketplace at Cinnaminson offers additional large scale shopping, while ShopRite of Cinnaminson, Sam's Club and Starbucks add to the everyday convenience.

Cinnaminson also has plenty of local dining choices. Due Amici Italian Grill offers Italian dining on Branch Pike. Tokyo Bleu is a longtime Japanese and sushi restaurant on Route 130. Whistlers Inn is a longtime local bar and grill, while BaBagrill offers Afghan cuisine on Branch Pike.

Cinnaminson Schools

Cinnaminson has its own township public school district.

The district includes Memorial Preschool, New Albany Elementary School, Eleanor Rush Intermediate School, Cinnaminson Middle School and Cinnaminson High School.

For buyers, having the elementary, intermediate, middle and high schools within one local district is often an important consideration.

As with every town, I recommend that buyers verify current school assignments, programs and boundaries directly with the school district before purchasing.

What Do Buyers Commonly Ask Me About Cinnaminson?

The questions I hear from buyers tend to center around a few themes: which neighborhoods offer larger homes, what can they buy for $400,000 or $500,000, which communities have association fees, whether they can walk or drive easily to the River LINE, how long it takes to get to Philadelphia, which bridge is easiest, whether the home has a basement, how old the major systems are, whether a community has a swimming pool, and how property taxes compare from one house to another.

These questions matter because Cinnaminson has such a wide range of housing.

A $300,000 condo, a $450,000 rancher and a $750,000 four bedroom home may all be located within the same township, but they are three completely different real estate markets.

My Perspective After 31 Years in South Jersey Real Estate

After 31 years in South Jersey real estate, I think Cinnaminson’s biggest strength is its balance.

It feels established without being isolated.

It has traditional neighborhoods and mature housing, but it also has newer townhouses and newer construction.

It offers its own River LINE station while still providing convenient highway access.

Philadelphia is close, but residents also have easy access to Moorestown, Mount Laurel, Cherry Hill and the rest of Burlington County.

And the housing market stretches from relatively affordable attached homes all the way to million dollar properties.

That variety is also why local pricing knowledge matters so much.

Cinnaminson is not one housing market. It is several real estate markets within one township.

For sellers, the goal is to identify exactly which homes today's buyer will compare with yours and then position your property to compete successfully.

For buyers, the goal is to understand the neighborhoods and housing choices before deciding which part of Cinnaminson makes the most sense.

Thinking About Buying or Selling a Home in Cinnaminson?

If you are thinking about selling your Cinnaminson home, I can help you determine what buyers are currently paying for homes that truly compare with yours rather than relying on a broad online estimate or township average.

I look at the neighborhood, home style, size, lot, age, condition, improvements and current competition to develop a pricing and marketing strategy.

And if you are buying, I can help you compare Cinnaminson neighborhoods, housing styles, price ranges, River LINE access, commuting options, association fees and resale considerations.
