Items to Verify with Your Agent
A few specifics on this page are sourced from secondary aggregators or older filings. Confirm before relying:
- Approx Homes — NeighborWho identifies 25 addresses on Willowbrook Road itself, but the neighborhood boundary (which includes Mill Road and other streets per listing descriptions) is undefined. Total home count is unverifiable without a recorded plat map or HOA roster.
- Hoa Name — No HOA name or recorded covenants found for the detached SFH area of Willowbrook. Legacy hint suggested HOA/condo; this appears to have been based on the Willowbrook Condominiums complex at 3360 Chichester Ave, not the SFH neighborhood. See supersedes.
- Builder — No single named builder identified for the Willowbrook SFH neighborhood. The 1970s construction era and organic lot-by-lot pattern suggests multiple builders or custom construction rather than a single developer.
- Interior Sqft Range Text — Square footage range derived from a small number of individual public records (1,998 sq ft at 316 Willowbrook Rd; ~2,000 sq ft at 1727 Mill Rd; 1,612 sq ft cited nearby). Insufficient data for a precise verified range.
- Most Common Elementary — Structural data input left this blank. Township-wide, students in Boothwyn attend either Boothwyn Elementary or Hilltop Elementary. Specific boundary for the Willowbrook street cluster not confirmed; buyers must verify with Chichester School District.
- Lot Character Text — Precise Range — Lot sizes of 0.26–0.45 acres come from only two NeighborWho records (322 and 325 Willowbrook Rd). Additional lots in the broader neighborhood may vary.
School District
