Hair Salon Could Replace Former Medical Office In Cherry Hill

Click:J27030-29

CHERRY HILL, NJ — A former medical office in Cherry Hill could become a hair salon.

Cherry Hill’s Zoning Board will review a proposal to convert the building into a space combining a hair salon and the salon owner’s home. A hearing is scheduled for Oct. 17’s meeting.

If approved, T&S Studio LLC would open the salon at 511 Kings Hwy N. — a 2,000-square-foot building on the corner of Kings Highway and Chapel Avenue.

An 820-square-foot portion of the building would feature a three-chair salon. The rest would be used as the business owner’s three-bedroom, two-bathroom home.

Jefferson Health recently used the one-floor building as a urology office, which no longer operates there.

Constructed in 1962, the building was originally a single-family house. It is located at the corner of a zoning district meant for such homes. But in 1968, the Zoning Board approved a proposal to make it into a medical office.

Hair salons are not allowed in the single-family residential zoning district, and neither are mixed-use buildings. T&S Salon, which acquired the building earlier this year, is seeking a variance from the Zoning Board to allow for both uses.

The building currently has a seven-space parking lot in the rear. Vehicles enter from Chapel Avenue and exit on the Kings Highway side street that runs parallel to the roadway. A two-space driveway — accessible from the Kings Highway side street — would be used for the living quarters.

The number of parking spaces is sufficient for both uses, according to zoning documents.

Although the property is in a residential district, it’s located by various businesses along Kings Highway, including Fulton Bank, Walgreens and a strip mall anchored by CVS. It is in the Kingston Estates neighborhood.

The Zoning Board will meet virtually at 7 p.m. Oct. 17, with hearings beginning at 7:30 p.m. Here are instructions for accessing the meeting.
