Overview and Location
Burrough’s Mill is a residential community located in Cherry Hill Township, New Jersey (08002), about 10 minutes east of the Delaware River and within easy reach of Philadelphia’s educational and professional hubs. The property offers a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, with a reported rent range of $1,500–$7,230 per month (indicative — confirm with the operator). Its positioning in Cherry Hill places it in a suburban setting with access to public transport and highways, making it relevant for students, interns, or faculty who commute to nearby colleges or workplaces. The community’s amenities are marketed as resort-style: a swimming pool, clubhouse, and fitness center are included in the tag list.
Who This Residence Suits
Burrough’s Mill is best suited for tenants who prioritize space, quiet surroundings, and on-site recreational facilities over rock-bottom pricing. The minimum lease term is six months, which offers flexibility for academic semesters or short-term assignments, but the monthly cost starts at $1,500 — well above the city’s lowest advertised price of $479 per month (indicative). This means the property targets residents who are willing to pay a premium for a more polished living environment, perhaps for a furnished unit or a specific layout.
The community’s atmosphere, based on resident reviews, appears welcoming and professionally managed. Given the three 5-star Google reviews quoted, the leasing team receives particular praise. Such an experience can be important for someone moving to the area without a local support network. The presence of a golf cart during tours (mentioned in one review) suggests the property is spread out or prioritises convenience for prospective renters.
Who This Residence Does Not Suit
Students or young professionals on a tight budget will find Burrough’s Mill difficult to afford. Even the lowest unit (around $1,500) is more than three times the city’s entry-level monthly rent of $479. If you are sharing a lease with multiple roommates, the per-person cost might still be high compared to other Cherry Hill options. Moreover, the property does not provide a clear available-from date, meaning you may need to check current inventory rather than plan months ahead.
Individuals looking for ultra-short-term stays (less than six months) will not be accommodated, unless the operator agrees to a different arrangement. Also, if you rely on public transit to reach a downtown campus — say, in Philadelphia — you should verify bus or train connections, as Cherry Hill is primarily a car-dependent suburb. The listing does not specify distance to any university, so independent research on commute times is recommended.
What Residents Actually Say
Three Google reviews are available for Burrough’s Mill, all scoring 5 out of 5. The common thread is the positive interaction with the leasing office, specifically a staff member named Teresa.
Sarah Thomas wrote: “The touring process was great. Teresa is amazing! Super kind and really worked with me to find the best apartment for me. The apartment community looks to have a lot of unique layouts all in a peaceful, homey community. I’m very much looking forward to moving in!” This suggests a personalised, pressure-free leasing experience and a perception of variety in floor plans.
Kim Syvertsen commented: “I walked into the leasing office without an appointment and Teresa could not have been nicer or more helpful! She helped me figure out the best options to meet my needs with a smile on her face and in her heart. 100% great experience! Thanks Teresa!” The drop-in nature of the visit signals that walk-ins are welcomed, and the agent’s attentiveness is a highlight.
Michael Maglio added: “Teresa was beyond welcoming, kind, warm, and almost immediately made us feel as if we were a part of the Burrough’s Mill community! Seeing so many people walking around, waving back to us with friendly smiles was awesome! The golf cart ride added to the enjoyment of the tour & definitely alleviated the stress of apartm” (the review appears truncated). The key takeaway is that the environment appears friendly and active, with staff going the extra mile to make the tour pleasant.
The property’s overall Google rating is 3.8 out of 5, based on 217 reviews. The three posted reviews lean positive, but the aggregate score indicates mixed experiences beyond those five-star accounts. Potential residents should read additional Google reviews to form a balanced picture.
Price Positioning vs. Cherry Hill’s From-Price
Cherry Hill’s lowest advertised monthly rent across 28 properties is $479 (indicative). Burrough’s Mill starts at $1,500, which is roughly 3.1 times that entry-level price. At the high end, $7,230 places it among the more expensive options in the area. The $1,500 price would typically cover a smaller unit (likely a one-bedroom or a studio), while the top-end figure probably applies to larger three-bedroom apartments or premium-floor plans.
For context, the city’s average rent may fall somewhere between $479 and $7,230, but with the given data we cannot calculate a precise median. What is clear is that Burrough’s Mill targets the upper half of the market. The $300 deposit (indicative) is modest compared to the monthly rent. The six-month minimum lease is shorter than many traditional 12-month leases, which could appeal to someone staying for a single semester or a co-op term.
Room Type Guidance
The available unit types are: 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom, and “apartment” (likely a general category that may include studios or larger layouts). Based on the price spread, you can expect:
- 1-bedroom apartments probably start around $1,500–$2,000.
- 2-bedroom units could range from $2,500 to $4,000.
- 3-bedroom units likely occupy the top end, up to $7,230.
Because the operator does not break down exact prices per floor plan, you must check with the leasing team for current rates. Also, since the available-from date is not provided, units may be ready for immediate move-in or have a future availability window — ask during your inquiry.
If you are a solo student, a 1-bedroom offers privacy but at a steep price relative to sharing a 2- or 3-bedroom with roommates. Splitting a $4,000 two-bedroom between two people yields $2,000 each, still above the city’s low-end average.
Booking Timing
The data was last updated around July 2026 (based on the “Sources & data date” requirement). Since no specific “available from” date is given, you should treat the listing as a general reference. For academic years starting fall 2026 or spring 2027, start exploring now. Cherry Hill’s student housing market may tighten closer to August, so early contact is advisable. Because Burrough’s Mill accepts walk-in tours (per reviews), you can visit in person or request a virtual tour. The six-month minimum lease makes it feasible for a single semester (fall 2026 or spring 2027) if you time it right.
Ask about any promotions, but remember that all prices and deposit amounts mentioned are indicative and may change without notice.
