About

Fox Valley is a detached single-family neighborhood in the eastern end of Concord Township, Delaware County, where development plans date to 1966 — a timeline corroborated by the Concord Township Historical Society, which notes that the Pole Cat Road House was conveyed to the township as part of Fox Valley’s development provisions. The neighborhood runs along Fox Valley Lane within the Glen Mills 19342 ZIP code and is served by the Garnet Valley School District, with Concord Elementary School located at 114 Station Road in Glen Mills. Fox Valley operates without a mandatory HOA; instead, residents may participate in the voluntary Fox Valley Community Association (FVCA), which organizes events such as Easter egg hunts, block parties, and Halloween gatherings, and a separate entity — Fox Valley Community Services Inc. — holds a state NPDES permit to operate the neighborhood’s private sewage treatment plant, discharging to the West Branch Chester Creek.

Home Stock

Detached single-family homes predominate, with configurations commonly running 3–5 bedrooms and multiple baths. Development plans dated to 1966 and the Concord Township Historical Society’s documentation of Fox Valley as ‘an early housing development in the eastern end of the township’ indicate the housing stock took shape in the mid-to-late 1960s. Public sales data also shows a small number of unit/flat/apartment-style properties within the ZIP code boundary, consistent with the ‘mixed’ community type designation.

Location & Access

Fox Valley is centered along Fox Valley Lane in Concord Township’s eastern section. The township is bisected by three regional routes — U.S. Route 1 (Baltimore Pike), U.S. Route 202 (Wilmington Pike), and U.S. Route 322 (Conchester Highway) — all of which intersect along the township’s western edge and provide connections to Philadelphia, Wilmington, and West Chester. Buyers should verify preferred commuting routes using current mapping tools.

What Makes This Distinct

Because Fox Valley Community Services Inc. operates a private sewage treatment facility under a Pennsylvania DEP NPDES permit (permit no. PA0030431), sellers are required by the FVCA to obtain written confirmation that sewer rent is fully paid before closing — a step distinct from municipal sewer procedures and one that buyers and their attorneys should build into the transaction timeline.

Worth Asking

Common Questions

Does Fox Valley have a homeowners association with mandatory dues?

No. Fox Valley does not have a traditional mandatory HOA. There is a voluntary civic organization — the Fox Valley Community Association (FVCA) — with annual household dues of $30 (or $20 for seniors). Separately, Fox Valley Community Services Inc. operates a private sewage treatment plant serving the development; sellers must confirm sewer rent is paid in full before closing. Buyers should ask for documentation of both the FVCA membership status and the sewer account balance during due diligence.

Which schools serve Fox Valley, and where are they located?

Fox Valley falls within the Garnet Valley School District, which was formally organized on March 30, 1959, and serves Concord Township, Bethel Township, and Chester Heights. The most common elementary school assignment for Fox Valley addresses is Concord Elementary School, located at 114 Station Road in Glen Mills, PA 19342. Buyers should verify current boundary assignments directly with the Garnet Valley School District, as attendance zones can change.

How old are most homes in Fox Valley, and when was the neighborhood developed?

Development plans for Fox Valley appear in historical records dating to 1966, and the Concord Township Historical Society documents Fox Valley as one of the township’s early residential subdivisions in its eastern section. The average year built across recorded sales is approximately 1969, placing the core housing stock firmly in the mid-to-late 1960s. Individual construction years vary — buyers should verify the year built for any specific property through the Delaware County tax assessor’s records or a licensed home inspector.

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 home count for Fox Valley was found in any named source. The neighborhood’s boundaries are not precisely mapped in publicly available data, and the public records sample is too small to extrapolate a total count.
  • Builder — No single developer or builder for Fox Valley was identified in any named source. The Concord Township Historical Society references 1966 development plans but does not name a builder. Organic/multi-builder development is possible given the era.
  • Interior Sqft Range Text — No verified square footage range specific to Fox Valley detached homes was found in named sources. The nearby Markham subdivision (also mid-1960s, Concord Township) shows 1,800–3,000 sq ft but that data should not be assumed to apply to Fox Valley.
  • Lot Character Text — Precise Dimensions — Lot sizes are described generally as ‘larger, established suburban lots’ in public records narratives but no specific acreage range was confirmed through a named source. Delaware County tax records would be the authoritative source per-parcel.
  • Fox Valley Community Services Jurisdiction Note — CauseIQ lists Fox Valley Community Services’ address as Chester Heights, PA, while the PA DEP NPDES permit (PA0030431) places the Fox Valley STP facility in Concord Township, Delaware County. The mailing address differs from the facility location. Buyers’ attorneys should confirm which properties are connected to this private system vs. municipal sewer.
