Homes for Sale in Holiday Village & Holiday Village East: The Real Estate Guide

Two 55+ communities, one shared address in Mount Laurel, NJ — and two very different stories. This chapter guide walks through what separates Holiday Village from Holiday Village East, what homes are actually selling for right now, what an HOA typically covers, and what daily life and the drive to Philadelphia look like from here.

Two Communities, One Address

Say "Holiday Village" in Mount Laurel and you'll get a follow-up question: which one? Holiday Village (HV) and Holiday Village East (HVE) were both built by J.S. Hovnanian & Sons and sit close enough to share a mailing identity in casual conversation — but they are separate, self-governed 55+ communities, each with its own homeowners association and its own clubhouse.

Holiday Village went up in the mid-1980s and holds roughly 711–717 units across single-family homes, patio homes, and condominiums. Most are two-bedroom ramblers with attached garages, open floor plans, and backyard patios; the townhouse- and condo-style units cluster in the northern part of the neighborhood, while the rest of HV reads as classic single-story, low-maintenance ranch living.

Holiday Village East came later, built between 1990 and 2001 by the same builder, and is noticeably larger — about 963 units, again mixing single-family homes, patio homes, and condos. Both communities are age-restricted to 55 and older and both are ungated, but HVE was designed around a broader roster of shared amenities, which is the thread the next few chapters pull on.

Homes & Pricing Today

Here's where the numbers stand as of 2026. Holiday Village's median sale price over the trailing 12 months is running around $384,000, up 10% year over year, with homes going under contract in roughly 28 days on market — well ahead of the roughly 50-day national average. Holiday Village East doesn't have the same tracked median, but a local brokerage's approximate estimate places HVE homes in a broad $200,000–$380,000 range, and one recent HVE listing — a 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo at 1,483 square feet — was priced at $399,000.

If you searched your way here looking for something in the $300,000–$350,000 band, that stretch sits comfortably inside HVE's current estimated span and just under HV's current median — worth keeping in mind as a rough orientation point, not a quote.

A caution worth repeating

Older published figures still circulate online — an August 2015 community snapshot listing roughly $163,900 for HV and $189,000 for HVE, and 2012–2014 three-year averages near $150,862 for HV and $198,400 for HVE. Those numbers are historical artifacts of a very different market and should not be used to judge what a home in either community is worth today. For an accurate, current picture of what houses for sale in Holiday Village Mt Laurel NJ are actually fetching, lean on the 2026 figures above and a licensed agent's local comps, not decade-old snapshots.

HOA Fees & What's Included

"What is included in the HOA fees?" is one of the most common questions we hear about both communities, and the honest answer is that the exact dollar amount isn't something we publish here — fees change, and the only reliable figure is whatever the association or a listing agent quotes you today. What we can lay out is the general structure each community is built around.

Holiday Village — a low-maintenance HOA:

  • Lawn care (mowing and general grounds upkeep)
  • Snow removal from common areas and, typically, driveways/walks
  • Governance and upkeep of shared community elements

Holiday Village East — a broader, amenity-supported association:

  • The same baseline low-maintenance services (lawn care, snow removal)
  • Ongoing upkeep of a clubhouse, outdoor pool, fitness center, craft room, and sport courts
  • Maintenance of shared grounds around HVE's lakes and walking paths

Because HVE's dues support a larger slate of shared amenities, buyers comparing the two should expect its fee structure to reflect more than HV's — but always confirm the current figure directly with the association or a licensed agent before assuming a number either way.

Amenities & Everyday Life

Life inside these gates — figuratively; neither community is actually gated — tends to happen at the clubhouse and around it. Both communities offer clubhouse-centered social life, but Holiday Village East is the amenity-dense half of the pair: a clubhouse, outdoor pool, fitness center, craft room, bocce courts, shuffleboard, tennis courts, and pickleball courts all sit within the community, alongside a standout feature — 12 lakes woven through the neighborhood.

HVE residents also have scenic walking trails close by, including access near the Rancocas Creek Greenway and Pennington Park, making an unhurried morning walk part of the everyday rhythm rather than a special outing. Holiday Village's amenity slate is more modest and centers on its own clubhouse and shared community grounds, in keeping with its low-maintenance, ranch-home character. Either way, the emphasis across both communities is the same: single-story living, minimal upkeep, and a built-in social calendar for residents 55 and up.

Location, Roads & Nearby Life

Both communities sit in Mount Laurel, Burlington County, New Jersey — close enough to Philadelphia (about 18 miles, roughly a 30-minute drive) for a city dinner or a Center City workday, but far enough out for the quieter, single-story pace these neighborhoods were built for.

Getting around is straightforward: I-295, Route 38, Route 73, and the New Jersey Turnpike all thread through or near Mount Laurel, putting shopping, medical offices, and regional travel within easy reach without much backtracking. Mount Laurel falls within the Lenape Regional High School District, and while most residents here aren't shopping for school quality, it's a relevant data point for anyone eventually reselling to a mixed-age buyer. Property taxes are assessed at the Burlington County level, so it's worth budgeting for that alongside any HOA dues rather than assuming one figure covers both.
