Meadows At Wicklow
About
The Meadows at Wicklow is a 55-and-older, age-restricted community built by Cedar Knoll Builders in Nottingham Township, Chester County, with construction beginning in 2022 and a planned buildout of 86 single-family homes. All homes are ranch-style detached structures with first-floor owner’s suites, ranging from 1,251 to 2,133 square feet across five named floor plans — the Dublin, Greenwich, Limerick, Waterford, and Belfast. The HOA covers lawn maintenance and common-area upkeep, and the community is served by public water, public sewer, and natural gas infrastructure, with no private well or septic obligation for residents.

Location Anchors
What Makes This Distinct
Because The Meadows at Wicklow is a still-active new-construction community (sales and building ongoing as of late 2024 per the builder’s own blog), buyers purchasing a resale home here are competing in a market where new inventory at builder prices remains available — a dynamic that can constrain resale appreciation until the community reaches buildout.
Worth Asking
Have you considered what happens to resale pricing when the builder still has unsold lots and can offer buyer incentives — and whether that changes how you should structure an offer on a resale home in a community that hasn’t yet reached full buildout?
Common Questions
Is The Meadows at Wicklow truly restricted to residents 55 and older?
Yes. The community is marketed and sold as a 55+ age-restricted active adult community under the Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA), which requires that at least 80% of occupied units be occupied by at least one person 55 or older. Buyers should request a copy of the community’s age-verification policy and recorded Declaration of Covenants before settlement to confirm enforcement procedures.
What does the HOA cover at The Meadows at Wicklow?
According to the builder and third-party listing data, the HOA covers lawn maintenance and common-area upkeep, and residents benefit from public water, public sewer, and natural gas service. The specific monthly HOA fee amount has not been publicly disclosed in verified sources; buyers should obtain the HOA’s current fee schedule, budget, and reserve study as part of due diligence.
Which school district serves The Meadows at Wicklow, and does it matter for a 55+ buyer?
The community falls within the Oxford Area School District in Chester County. Because this is an age-restricted community with no school-age residents anticipated, school-district assignment has no direct daily impact on homeowners — but it does affect property tax calculations, since Oxford Area School District millage is applied to assessed value. Buyers should verify the current millage rate with Chester County before closing.
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 — No formal HOA legal name has been disclosed in any publicly accessible source. The HOA is referenced generically across builder and third-party sites but is not named.
- Hoa Fee Amount — No monthly or annual HOA fee figure has been published in any verified source. Buyers must request the current fee schedule directly from the builder or HOA.
- Lot Character Text — Individual lot dimensions for The Meadows at Wicklow have not been publicly disclosed; the adjacent Wicklow Heights community (different product, not 55+) lists lots of 0.21–0.40 acres but those figures cannot be applied to The Meadows at Wicklow.
- Approx Homes — The figure of 86 homes comes from 55places.com, which is a third-party aggregator that explicitly disclaims that its data has not been verified by the developer or HOA. Treat as estimated, not verified.
- Avg Year Built — Input data shows avg_year_built as unknown. Research confirms construction began in 2022 per builder’s own blog and 55places; however, community is still under construction so a final avg_year_built cannot yet be calculated.
- Township — Input row left township blank. Research confirms the community is in Nottingham Township, Chester County, per the builder’s own URLs (cedarknollbuilders.com/communities/nottingham/) and blog posts referencing ‘Visit Nottingham Township today.’ Mailing address uses Oxford, PA 19363 but the municipal jurisdiction is Nottingham Township.
- Interior Sqft Range Text — Optional Second Floor — Some plans (e.g., Dublin with loft, Belfast with optional second floor) can exceed their base square footage when optional additions are selected. Maximum expanded square footage has not been comprehensively published.
