About
Knolls of Birmingham is a 180-home subdivision in Birmingham Township, Chester County, built between 1991 and 1999 by three separate builders—Orleans, Toll Brothers, and Megill Homes—across three structure types: detached singles, twin homes, and townhomes. The community is sited on over 100 acres, and since 2011 its HOA has partnered with the Brandywine Conservancy to plant and maintain over 1,500 trees and shrubs along Radley Run, which flows through the development and supports more than 50 acres of preserved open space. Residents have walking access to Sandy Hollow Heritage Park, a 42-acre Birmingham Township property that is part of the Brandywine Battlefield National Historic Landmark, and the community’s own amenities include a swimming pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and paved walking paths passing a 200-year-old stone meeting house.

What Makes This Distinct
The HOA—incorporated as a domestic nonprofit in August 1991 and managed by Penco Management Inc—covers lawn maintenance, snow removal, exterior building maintenance (for townhome units), and trash removal, functions that meaningfully reduce owner maintenance obligations but also introduce a recurring fee obligation and collective governance risk that buyers should underwrite before contracting.
