Lots, Land and Farms in Voorhees Township

Here is the honest frame for this page: Voorhees Township is built out. There is no meaningful raw land market here and there has not been one for years. At any given moment the entire township has a handful of parcels for sale — not dozens, not hundreds. If you are searching for land in Voorhees expecting a menu, the short list you are looking at is not a bad search. It is the market.

What is left falls into two groups. The first is infill — single lots sitting inside neighborhoods that were finished decades ago, on streets like Locust Avenue, Blue Heron Court and Fairway Drive. These are not open ground. They are gaps: a lot that was skipped, a lot that was subdivided off a larger property, a lot that never got built on for a reason worth finding out. The second is residual acreage on the older roads that predate the subdivisions — Kresson-Gibbsboro Road, South Burnt Mill Road, White Horse Road, Rural Avenue. These are the last pieces of the township that were never absorbed.

Two lots currently on Locust Avenue show how wide the spread gets on a single street. One is a sliver — barely more than a driveway's worth of ground, the kind of parcel that may or may not be independently buildable at all. The other, on the same road, is two-thirds of an acre and priced in an entirely different universe. Same street, same ZIP, and nothing about the address tells you which one you are looking at. That is the recurring trap on this page: in a built-out township, lot size and setback requirements decide everything, and a cheap lot is usually cheap because something about it does not work.

Kresson-Gibbsboro Road is worth watching separately, because it is where the actual transactions happen. The parcels that have changed hands there recently carry subdivided lot numbers off larger parent tracts, roughly an acre each. That road is the closest thing Voorhees has to an active land market, and it is finite.

Now the connection most buyers never make. New construction in Voorhees is rare and episodic — a small number of houses a year, built one at a time rather than in communities, because there is nowhere left to put a community. The parcels on this page are where those houses come from. If you want a new home in this township and you are tired of waiting for one to be listed, buying the ground and building is the other route in, and it is a route almost nobody considers.

Understand the pace before you start. Land here sits. One parcel on South Burnt Mill Road has been listed since 2020. Others have taken price reductions along the way. That is not a comment on the ground itself — it reflects how few buyers are shopping this category in any given year. As a buyer that means there is rarely competition and usually room to negotiate. As a seller it means patience, and pricing that reflects what the parcel can actually be used for rather than what the house next door sold for.

Three questions decide whether a parcel here is worth what it costs. Is it independently buildable — a lot inside an established neighborhood may fail current minimum lot size or setback requirements even though the houses on either side of it were built long ago. What are the utilities — most of the township is sewered, but the older road frontage is not uniformly so, and that changes the math. And what does the township actually permit on that specific lot, confirmed by the township rather than inferred from the listing. Voorhees is a place where the answer to all three is usually knowable in a phone call, and where getting it wrong is expensive.

Everything currently on the market in the township is in the grid above. If you have a specific parcel in mind and want to know what comparable ground actually closed at rather than what it was asking, that is a conversation, not a search. Also worth a look: homes on 1+ acres, new construction, and condos and townhomes.
