About
Kingston Terrace is a townhouse subdivision in Aston Township, Delaware County, positioned off Dutton Mill Road near its intersection with Concord Road. All units were built in 1987 as two-story Colonial-style attached townhouses, each with approximately 1,360–1,384 sq ft of finished living space, private driveways, and rear deck or yard access — some with views of the wooded Chester Creek corridor. The community carries an active HOA fee of $225 per quarter, recorded consistently across multiple BrightMLS listings, which covers common area maintenance.

What Makes This Distinct
Kingston Terrace sits within a township that has a documented flood history tied to Chester Creek — Hurricane Floyd in 1999 closed every road crossing a creek in Aston, and a 1971 flood caused fatalities and bridge damage. Buyers whose units back toward the Chester Creek corridor should verify individual parcel FEMA flood zone classification at msc.fema.gov before closing.

Worth Asking
Have you considered that a $225 quarterly HOA fee covers common area maintenance but does not eliminate your individual responsibility for exterior components like roofs and stucco — and that multiple listings in this community show those items were owner-replaced as capital expenses?
Common Questions
What school district serves Kingston Terrace, and which elementary school is zoned for this address?
Kingston Terrace falls within the Penn-Delco School District, which serves Aston Township, Brookhaven Borough, and Parkside Borough. The district operates two elementary schools in Aston Township: Aston Elementary (900 Tryens Rd) and Pennell Elementary (3300 Richard Rd). One rental listing for 28 Kingston Terrace explicitly referenced Aston Elementary School, but attendance zone boundaries can change. Always confirm your specific unit’s assignment directly with Penn-Delco at (610) 497-6300 before relying on any third-party boundary map. The K–12 pathway runs through Northley Middle School and Sun Valley High School.
Is there a homeowners association at Kingston Terrace, and what does the fee cover?
Yes. Active public records at Kingston Terrace — including 40 Kingston Terrace (public records PADE2090702) and 60 Kingston Terrace (public records PADE2091906) — each disclose an HOA fee of $225 per quarter. Per public sales data, the fee includes common area maintenance. The formal HOA entity name has not been independently confirmed in public filings reviewed during this research. Buyers should request the association’s current budget, reserve study, and governing documents as part of due diligence under Pennsylvania’s Planned Community Act.
What is the flood risk profile for Kingston Terrace given its proximity to Chester Creek?
Chester Creek forms the eastern boundary of Aston Township, and the township’s own history documents that Hurricane Floyd (1999) closed every creek-crossing road in Aston, and a 1971 flood caused loss of life and bridge damage. Some Kingston Terrace units — particularly those at higher address numbers near the rear of the community — have listing descriptions referencing views of Chester Creek and wooded areas, suggesting proximity to the creek corridor. Flood zone classification varies parcel by parcel; buyers must look up their specific address on FEMA’s Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and verify with their lender whether flood insurance is required. Standard homeowners insurance does not cover flood damage.
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 — Multiple public records confirm a $225/quarter HOA fee and common area maintenance scope, but no formal entity name for the homeowners association was found in public filings or public sales data reviewed.
- Approx Homes — The legacy spreadsheet states approximately 85 homes, but this figure could not be verified against any named public source. Address numbers observed in public records history run at least into the 60s, but total unit count is unconfirmed. Left null per rules.
- Builder — No builder of record for the 1987 Kingston Terrace development was identified in any public source reviewed.
- Most Common Elementary — One rental listing cites Aston Elementary School; attendance zones within Penn-Delco for the specific Kingston Terrace parcel cluster could not be confirmed from official district maps without direct district contact. Both Aston Elementary and Pennell Elementary operate in the township.
- Flood Zone Classification — Kingston Terrace proximity to the Chester Creek corridor warrants per-parcel FEMA FIRM lookup; the township has documented flood history but no parcel-level zone designation for Kingston Terrace addresses was confirmed in this research.
- Hoa Scope Exterior Vs Interior — Multiple listings show owners individually replacing roofs, stucco, windows, and HVAC, suggesting the $225/quarter HOA covers only common areas and not building exteriors. However, the governing documents were not reviewed to confirm this definitively.
