About

Fern Hill is a low-density detached single-family subdivision in Pennsbury Township, Chester County, built out primarily between 1974 and 1984 with a median construction year of approximately 1978. The subdivision’s internal streets — Fern Hill Road, Apple Row, and Sapling Drive — are accessed from Parkersville Road off US Route 1, and homes sit on lots running just under two and a half acres, served by private wells and on-site septic systems. Every home in the subdivision falls within the Unionville-Chadds Ford School District, and students in the area attend Charles F. Patton Middle School and Unionville High School.

What Makes This Distinct

Because Fern Hill lots rely entirely on private septic and well systems — with no public water or sewer connection to this part of Pennsbury Township — buyers should budget for periodic septic pumping (township ordinance requires pumping at least once every three years) and well-water testing as standard ownership costs, not optional upgrades.
