About
Fox Knoll is a detached single-family subdivision in East Fallowfield Township, Chester County, built primarily circa 1990 with a later infill phase around 2005. Lots average approximately one acre, interior square footage runs from roughly 1,800 to 3,000 square feet, and the subdivision’s internal street grid — Pheasant Run to the north and Trotters Way to the south — straddles South Bailey Road. At least one parcel within the community carries a recorded easement to the Horse-Shoe Trail, a 140-mile hiking and equestrian corridor that runs from Valley Forge National Park to the Appalachian Trail near Harrisburg.

What Makes This Distinct

Common Questions
Does Fox Knoll have a homeowners association?
No formal HOA has been identified in public records or through public sources. Buyers should confirm during due diligence by reviewing the deed and any recorded declarations at the Chester County Recorder of Deeds, as the absence of an active HOA means there is no shared fee structure — but also no architectural review or common-area maintenance obligation.
What school district serves Fox Knoll?
Fox Knoll is located in East Fallowfield Township and is served by the Coatesville Area School District. School attendance boundaries can shift; buyers should verify current assignment directly with the district before relying on any listing-level boundary data.
How do Fox Knoll residents commute to Philadelphia?
The SEPTA Paoli/Thorndale Line terminates at Thorndale Station, located at 201 South Bailey Road — the same road that runs through Fox Knoll. The station provides direct rail service to Center City Philadelphia with no transfer required. Buyers who depend on rail service should confirm current schedules and Sunday service limitations directly with SEPTA, as Thorndale is not served on Sundays under current timetables.
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 — No source provides a verified total home count for Fox Knoll as a whole. Ownerly lists 14 addresses on Pheasant Run alone, but the subdivision also includes Trotters Way addresses; total lot count not independently verified.
- Builder — No named builder is documented for the original circa-1990 construction phase. Rotelle Development is associated with at least one lot/home on the circa-2005 Pheasant Run infill phase, but that listing describes a single custom-built home and is insufficient to credit Rotelle as the subdivision’s primary developer. Lot at 1485 S. Bailey Rd explicitly states ‘no builder tie-in.’
- Hoa Name — No HOA name found in public records, East Fallowfield Township records, or any named public source. Public records-derived status confirms ‘None found.’ Buyers should verify at Chester County Recorder of Deeds.
- Typical Home Style Text — Garage Configuration — Garage count and configuration (attached vs. detached, 2-car vs. 3-car) varies across individual listings reviewed and could not be stated as a uniform community-wide characteristic.
- Most Common Elementary — Public sales data did not identify the most common elementary school assignment within the Coatesville Area School District for Fox Knoll addresses. Coatesville Area SD boundaries should be verified directly with the district.
