William Penn Villa
About
William Penn Villas is an 87-home, age-restricted (55+) community in Limerick Township, Montgomery County, built between 2000 and 2004 and available exclusively as resale. The community offers a documented mix of single-family detached ranch homes and attached villas ranging from approximately 1,194 to 2,996 sq ft, all served by the Spring-Ford Area School District and assigned to Limerick Elementary School. The William Penn Villas Community Association maintains lawn care, driveway and walkway snow removal, weekly trash and recycling pickup, road maintenance, and roof replacement as part of its HOA fee structure — a scope that directly offsets several of the largest recurring exterior costs a homeowner would otherwise carry independently.
Specifications
Home Stock
Single-story ranch construction throughout, with both detached singles (2–4 bedrooms, 2–3 baths, attached 2-car garage) and attached villas (2–3 bedrooms, 2–3 baths, attached 1- or 2-car garage). All homes were built circa 2000–2004 and are available on a resale-only basis.

What Makes This Distinct
Because the HOA fee explicitly covers roof replacement — a capital expense that can run $8,000–$15,000 per event on comparable Pennsylvania homes — buyers should verify the current reserve fund balance and replacement schedule before closing to confirm the association can fund that obligation without a special assessment.
Worth Asking
Have you considered that the HOA’s stated coverage of roof replacement only protects you if the reserve fund is adequately funded — and that Pennsylvania law does not require HOAs to maintain any minimum reserve level?

Items to Verify with Your Agent
A few specifics on this page are sourced from secondary aggregators or older filings. Confirm before relying:
- Builder — No single builder or developer has been identified across any available source for William Penn Villas. Multiple sources confirm the construction era (2000–2004) but do not name a builder.
- Hoa Fee Amount — Specific monthly or annual HOA fee dollar amount is not confirmed from any verified source; one listing on Movoto cited $315/month but this is unverified and may be stale.
- Elementary School Assignment — LivingPlaces.com identifies Limerick Elementary as the serving elementary for this address, and it is the geographically proximate Spring-Ford elementary for Limerick Township. However, the input data left ‘most_common_elementary’ blank. Buyers should confirm directly with Spring-Ford Area School District, as boundary assignments can change.
- Avg Year Built — Input left avg_year_built as ‘unknown.’ Multiple external sources converge on 2000–2004 construction range with a median of approximately 2001–2002. No anomaly detected; data is simply absent from the input feed.
- Appreciation Range Text — Appreciation pattern was not provided in the 33-year index input. Omitted from page content per evergreen policy.
- Township — Input left township blank. All verifiable sources — including the community’s own website, LivingPlaces, 55places, Coldwell Banker public records, and active listing descriptions — consistently identify the township as Limerick Township. This has been applied to the page.
