About
Flora Hills is a mid-century single-family subdivision in Boothwyn, a census-designated place within Upper Chichester Township, Delaware County, PA — a First Class Township in southwestern Delaware County bordering the state of Delaware to the south. Public record data for homes on Flora Lane documents construction dates ranging from approximately 1950 to 1965, consistent with the postwar suburban build-out that characterized southeastern Pennsylvania during that era. The subdivision falls entirely within the Chichester School District, with children assigned to Boothwyn Elementary School (grades K–4), Chichester Middle School (grades 5–8), and Chichester Senior High School (grades 9–12), all located within the district’s 10-square-mile footprint in Delaware County.

What Makes This Distinct
Public records consistently record ‘Flora Hills’ as the subdivision name for detached single-family homes on Flora Lane and adjacent streets in the 19061 ZIP code, and the Compass and RE/MAX listings for 1084 Flora Lane confirm HOA Dues of $0, supporting the no-HOA designation. Buyers should independently verify deed restrictions with a title search, as organic mid-century subdivisions sometimes carry recorded covenants that are not enforced by any active association.

Common Questions
What school district serves Flora Hills, and which schools would my children attend?
Flora Hills is served by the Chichester School District, a suburban public district covering approximately 10 square miles in southeastern Delaware County. Children at this address are typically assigned to Boothwyn Elementary School (grades K–4, located at 2128 Blueball Avenue, Boothwyn), Chichester Middle School (grades 5–8, located at 925 Meetinghouse Road, Boothwyn), and Chichester Senior High School (grades 9–12, located at 3333 Chichester Avenue, Marcus Hook). Buyers should confirm current boundary assignments directly with the district, as attendance zones can change.
Is there a homeowners association (HOA) in Flora Hills?
Public records and listing data for homes at Flora Lane in the Flora Hills subdivision show HOA dues listed as $0, consistent with the legacy data noting no HOA. However, mid-century subdivisions in Pennsylvania sometimes have recorded deed restrictions that predate any organized association. A title search and review of recorded covenants is the only reliable way to confirm the absence of enforceable restrictions prior to purchase.
How accessible is Flora Hills to major highways and employment centers?
Upper Chichester Township is served by Interstate 95, which runs through the township’s southeastern section along a southwest-to-northeast alignment, and by U.S. Route 322 (Conchester Highway), which interchanges with I-95 at the township’s eastern border. Boothwyn is situated approximately 20 miles from Philadelphia and 10 miles from Wilmington, Delaware, with Philadelphia International Airport approximately 11 miles from the area. SEPTA bus service also operates in Boothwyn, and regional rail is accessible within a few miles.
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 verified total home count for the Flora Hills subdivision could be found in public records, public records aggregates, or township sources. Rehold.com lists 48 properties on the 897–1150 Flora Lane range, but this is a street count, not a subdivision boundary count, and the subdivision may include cross streets such as Oliver Lane.
- Builder — No single builder for Flora Hills could be identified. Property records show individual homes built at various dates between 1950 and 1965, consistent with organic or multi-builder development rather than a single tract developer.
- Hoa Name — No active HOA name found. Public records and listing data show $0 HOA dues, and no HOA organization for Flora Hills appears in any public record searched. Legacy hint of no HOA is supported but not independently verified through a formal deed or covenant search.
- Most Common Elementary — Public records structural data field is blank. Wikipedia and Chichester SD sources indicate Upper Chichester students attend either Boothwyn Elementary or Hilltop Elementary. Flora Hills’ specific boundary assignment to one elementary over the other was not confirmed through a district boundary map. Buyers should verify directly with Chichester School District.
- Typical Home Style Text — Cape Cod Notation — Hudway Glass identifies 1064 Flora Lane as Cape Cod style, but the broader subdivision is predominantly ranch and split-level per legacy hints and Boothwyn community context. The presence of colonials is noted in at least one public records listing (909 Flora Lane). Style mix may be more varied than the legacy hint ‘Ranch & split-level only’ suggests.
- Appreciation Range Text Anomaly — The 33-year appreciation index uses only 1 sale, making the average year built of 1955 and the 58.1% average return statistically limited. The appreciation pattern language (‘moderate, 40–60%’) is used as directional framing only; the thin sales count means this cannot be treated as a robust neighborhood-level signal.
