About
Cherry Tree Woods is a detached single-family subdivision in Aston Township, Delaware County, PA, within the Penn-Delco School District (ZIP 19014). Delaware County public records identify at least four recorded sections of the subdivision — including ‘Cherry Tree Woods 04 Sec 03’ — indicating a phased buildout that spans from the early 1960s through the late 1970s, producing a range of colonial, bi-level, split-level, and rancher floor plans on lots documented between 0.22 and 0.40 acres. The internal street network — Cathy Lane, Connie Lane, Giles Lane, Scott Lane, Rohach Road, Schick Road, and Frazer Lane, all feeding off Cherry Tree Road — was noted in a listing as ‘no traffic cut-throughs,’ a structural feature that limits pass-through vehicle volume.
Specifications
Home Stock

Common Questions
What schools serve Cherry Tree Woods?
Cherry Tree Woods falls within the Penn-Delco School District, which serves Aston Township, Brookhaven Borough, and Parkside Borough. The district operates four elementary schools (Aston, Coebourn, Parkside, and Pennell), one middle school (Northley Middle), and one high school (Sun Valley High School). Public records for addresses on Cherry Tree Road have shown assignment to both Aston Elementary and Pennell Elementary depending on the specific parcel — buyers should confirm the assigned elementary school directly with Penn-Delco before purchasing.
Is there a homeowners association (HOA) in Cherry Tree Woods?
No named HOA has been identified for Cherry Tree Woods through public records, county sources, or HOA registries. At least one Redfin record for a home in the subdivision shows $0 in HOA dues. Buyers should request a title search and seller disclosure to confirm no dormant association, deed restrictions, or recorded covenants exist, particularly given the multi-section plat history.
How accessible is Cherry Tree Woods to major highways and employment centers?
Cherry Tree Road connects to Concord Road, which provides access to U.S. Route 322 (Conchester Highway) and Interstate 95. A listing for a home in the subdivision specifically cites ‘easy access to I-95, Routes 322, 202, and 1 as well as SEPTA’s Elwyn and Media stations and Philadelphia International Airport.’ Neumann University’s directions confirm that Philadelphia and Wilmington, Delaware are each less than 30 minutes from the Aston area via this corridor.
Items to Verify with Your Agent
A few specifics on this page are sourced from secondary aggregators or older filings. Confirm before relying:
- Approx Homes — Legacy hint of 160 homes cannot be verified against any named county, public records, or municipal source. Left null per no-invention rule.
- Builder — No single builder identified across any public records, county, or news source. The multi-section plat structure suggests organic development by multiple builders over roughly two decades. Cannot be verified.
- Hoa Name — No named HOA found in public records, HOA registries, or county sources. One Redfin record shows $0 HOA. Legacy hint said ‘HOA possible’ — no evidence of an active association was found, but absence of evidence is not conclusive. Buyers should request seller disclosure and title search.
- Era Band / Avg Year Built — The MI tool reports avg year built of 1979 and the legacy spreadsheet says 1987-1990. Public records show individual homes built in 1962 and 1973. The subdivision’s multi-section structure (at least 4 sections per county records) means construction spanned roughly 1962 through the late 1970s or early 1980s. The 1979 average is plausible but the legacy ‘1987-1990’ range appears to describe only later sections. Era band set to ‘Mixed’ to reflect this span. Needs review against full assessor data.
- Elementary School Assignment — Public sales data supplied with this request lists ‘Aston’ as most common elementary. Redfin’s county-record data for 1363 Cherry Tree Rd shows ‘Pennell Elementary’ as assigned. Both Aston and Pennell elementaries serve Aston Township within Penn-Delco. The assigned school may vary by parcel location within the subdivision. Buyers must verify directly with Penn-Delco School District.
- Flood Zone Status — Cherry Tree Road runs near the Concord Road/Chester Creek corridor where Aston Township history records a 1967 flood event affecting homes along Concord Road. Individual parcel flood zone status was not confirmed for Cherry Tree Woods lots. Buyers should verify via FEMA Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) for each specific address.
- Lot Size Range — Public records confirm lots of 0.22 and 0.40 acres for specific addresses. The legacy hint of 0.25-0.50 acres is partially but not fully corroborated — smaller lots (0.22 acres) exist. Range listed as 0.22–0.40 acres based on verified records.
School District
Cherry Tree Woods is served by the Penn-Delco School District. Buyers should verify current school assignments directly with the district.
