What Makes This Distinct
Penns Greene is a low-turnover, limited-inventory subdivision: The Cyr Team’s 33-year appreciation index records show the community has historically tracked appreciation well above the Avon Grove district median, with long average marketing periods indicating that sellers who price to the upper range of comparable sales must allow meaningful time on market.

Items to Verify with Your Agent
A few specifics on this page are sourced from secondary aggregators or older filings. Confirm before relying:
- Hoa Name — No named HOA entity for Penns Greene was found in any searchable public record, management company directory, or state filing. LivingPlaces.com (the legacy hint source) does not list an HOA name. Public records-derived HOA status is unconfirmed. A Cyr Team reviewer should pull the deed or contact Penn Township directly to determine whether a formal HOA exists and its legal name.
- Approx Homes — No public record, subdivision plat index, or aggregator source returned a total home count for Penns Greene. Street address numbers observed in public records range from at least 11 to 40 on Penns Greene Drive, but the full extent of the street and total lot count cannot be confirmed without county parcel data. Left null to avoid fabrication.
- Hoa Notes (Legacy Hint Url) — The legacy hint pointed to livingplaces.com for HOA info, but that page lists no HOA name or fee structure — only builder, era, lot size, and interior sq ft. No HOA data was verifiable from that source.
- Faq 1 A Elementary School Grade Bands — AGSD’s About Us page and Franklin Township’s page show slightly differing K band splits (K-1 vs K-2 for Penn London; 2-5 vs 3-5 for Intermediate). The official AGSD About Us page is used as authoritative but buyers should verify directly with the district.
School District
