About
Cherry Tree Knoll is a townhome subdivision in Upper Chichester Township, Delaware County, built circa 1995. The community sits along Cherry Tree Road within the Chichester School District, which operates four elementary schools including Hilltop Elementary at 401 Cherry Tree Road — the same road providing primary access to the neighborhood.

Specifications
Home Stock
Two-story interior-row townhomes, typically 2–3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, with eat-in kitchens, living/dining combinations, second-floor laundry, vaulted ceilings in primary bedrooms, walkout basements, and rear decks. The legacy hint describing single-family detached homes is not supported by public records or LivingPlaces data and has been superseded.
Location & Access
Primary access is from Cherry Tree Road; Naamans Creek Road (PA-491) is a local connector. US Route 322 (Conchester Highway) provides regional access northwest toward US-1 and southeast to the I-95 interchange in Upper Chichester. Buyers should note that PennDOT recorded 1,914 crashes on Conchester Highway between 2004 and 2023, prompting an active reconstruction project; the phase-two widening covers the Cherry Tree Road/Bethel Avenue to Market Street segment directly adjacent to this community.

Common Questions
What school district serves Cherry Tree Knoll, and which elementary school is assigned?
Cherry Tree Knoll falls within the Chichester School District, which serves Upper Chichester Township, Lower Chichester Township, Marcus Hook Borough, and Trainer Borough in southeastern Delaware County. The district operates four public elementary schools. Hilltop Elementary School, located at 401 Cherry Tree Road in the same corridor as the subdivision, is the elementary school most commonly associated with Upper Chichester Township addresses in this ZIP code. School boundary assignments can change; buyers should confirm the current assignment directly with the Chichester School District before making enrollment decisions.
Does Cherry Tree Knoll have a homeowners association, and what does it cover?

Public records for Cherry Tree Knoll units consistently show a homeowners association fee, with amounts in recorded listings ranging from approximately $70 to $140 per month depending on the period. Documented fee inclusions across those listings include snow removal, common area maintenance, exterior building maintenance, lawn maintenance, and parking. The legal name of the association and the current fee schedule were not confirmed through a named HOA registry at the time of this writing; buyers should request the association’s current Declaration of Covenants, current budget, and reserve fund disclosures as part of due diligence.

The Marcus Hook station on SEPTA’s Wilmington/Newark Regional Rail Line provides rail service northbound to Center City Philadelphia and southbound to Wilmington and Newark, Delaware.

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 — HOA existence is confirmed through public records (fee, services covered), but the legal registered name of the association was not found in a named HOA registry or Delaware County deed records search. Buyer must request documents at time of offer.
- Approx Homes — Total unit count for the subdivision was not found in any verified source. No plat map, township filing, or listing aggregator confirmed a total number. Left null rather than estimate.
- Builder — No single builder was identified in public records, permit records, or news sources. Builder unknown; left null.
- Mailing City Zip Conflict — Input data specifies mailing city Marcus Hook, ZIP 19061. LivingPlaces and multiple public records consistently show Aston PA 19014 for Cherry Tree Knoll addresses (Evergreen Lane, Heather Lane, Dogwood Circle). Upper Chichester spans both ZIP codes. The correct mailing ZIP for this specific subdivision appears to be 19014, not 19061. This must be confirmed against USPS records or a current listing address before publishing.
- Most Common Elementary — Input public sales data left this field blank. LivingPlaces page for Cherry Tree Knoll does not specify an elementary. Nearby communities in the same ZIP (19014) and same district are assigned Hilltop Elementary. Inferred but not confirmed; buyer must verify with Chichester School District.
- Interior Sqft Range Text — Size range is derived from individual public records listing records (1,320–1,440 sq ft above grade), not a compiled subdivision-level dataset. Range may not reflect all unit configurations.
