About
Plum Tree Village is a townhome subdivision in East Bradford Township, Chester County, built in phases from approximately 1989 through 1997, with a median construction year of circa 1994. The community consists entirely of attached row and end-unit townhouses—no single-family detached homes—organized along Shropshire Drive and Amber Lane, accessed from Lenape Road (Route 52).
