Homes for Sale in Chester Heights, PA

Chester Heights is a small borough in western Delaware County, incorporated in 1945 out of what was once the northernmost section of Aston Township. It sits just south of U.S. Route 1, about a mile from Wawa, in the same general area as Glen Mills and Concordville. The borough is also home to the Chester Heights Camp Meeting Historic District, a Gothic Revival and Queen Anne era Methodist camp meeting site dating to 1872 that's on the National Register of Historic Places.

Chester Heights punches above its weight for desirability, largely thanks to the schools attached to it. As a Delaware County specialist, I help buyers understand what this small, exurban borough offers and help sellers position their homes for the families specifically targeting this district.
