ADU rules in Cherry Hill, NJ — also called accessory dwelling unit regulations or granny flat ordinances — cover setbacks, owner-occupancy, parking, and permit requirements.
Cherry Hill Township does not currently include a generally applicable Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) ordinance permitting detached or interior ADUs in residential zones. Multi-family use is restricted to R-2 and higher density zones.
Two-family conversions in residential zones generally require zoning approval and must meet R-2 standards. The Zoning Board of Adjustment may grant use variances under N.J.S.A. 40:55D-70(d) but the burden is on the applicant. No township-wide ADU by-right ordinance exists as of last code update.
Unauthorized second dwelling units are zoning violations and lead to rental certificate denial.
