Homes for Sale in Upper Chichester Township, PA — Boothwyn, Ogden, and Twin Oaks

Searching for homes for sale in Upper Chichester Township, PA? This is one of Delaware County's largest townships by population, about 16,800 people spread across 6.7 square miles in the county's far southwestern corner, near the Pennsylvania and Delaware line. It traces back to the original Chichester settlement, laid out by Quakers starting in 1681, which split into Upper and Lower Chichester in 1700 to make local governance easier. The Chichester Friends Meetinghouse, built in 1769 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, still stands as a reminder of that history.

The township itself is made up of three named communities: Boothwyn, the largest and best known, along with Ogden and Twin Oaks. Boothwyn takes its name from 19th century landowner Edwin Booth, and today it's home to Booth's Corner, a longtime Amish farmers market that draws shoppers from well outside the township. Rock and roll pioneer Bill Haley was a longtime Boothwyn resident, one more piece of unexpected history packed into this corner of the county. As a Delaware County specialist, I help buyers understand which of these sections fits their goals and their budget, since the market moves differently depending on where in the township you're looking.

Why Buy a Home in Upper Chichester Township, PA?

Schools: The township is served by the Chichester School District, which also covers Marcus Hook, Trainer, and Lower Chichester Township. Chichester High School and Chichester Middle School are both located right in Boothwyn.

Commute: This is a car-dependent community with easy access to I-95 and PA Routes 322 and 452. The nearest SEPTA Regional Rail service is at Marcus Hook station, just over the border in the neighboring borough. Center City Philadelphia is about 20 miles away, and Wilmington, Delaware is close by to the south.

Price range: Recent sales in Boothwyn have run mostly in the $300,000 to $350,000 range, with some sections of the broader township trading in the $200,000s. Homes in Boothwyn specifically have been moving fast, often in under 40 days with multiple offers.

Home styles: Mostly single-family homes and twins from the postwar suburban building era, with a handful of townhouse and condo communities mixed in.

Local draw: Booth's Corner Farmers Market is a genuine destination, an Amish market that's been a fixture for shoppers across the region. The Chichester Friends Meetinghouse adds real historical weight, and the township's connection to Bill Haley gives it an unexpected piece of music history.

Community character: A working, family-oriented township shaped by its position near the Delaware River industrial corridor and the state line. It's practical rather than polished, and residents tend to value that.

Upper Chichester's Communities

Boothwyn: The largest and most recognized of the township's three communities, home to Booth's Corner, both of the district's secondary schools, and most of the township's commercial activity.

Ogden: A smaller residential section of the township, quieter and more purely residential than Boothwyn.

Twin Oaks: Another smaller residential community within the township, rounding out the three named areas that make up Upper Chichester.

Upper Chichester Township Real Estate Market

The pace here varies more than in most townships I cover. Boothwyn itself has been moving quickly, often under 40 days on market with multiple offers, while other pockets of the township give buyers more breathing room. That variation means it's worth looking closely at the specific section before assuming you know what kind of market you're walking into.

For buyers who want a single-family home or twin at a more attainable price point than the county's northern and eastern townships, with genuinely easy highway access to both Philadelphia and Delaware, this is worth serious consideration.

Most one-story homes around here land around 1,200 square feet. This one is bigger and a lot more open, and it was renovated in 2026. Walk in and the entry and living room open straight up into vaulted ceilings. New flooring runs the length of the house, and the light through that main space is the first thing people comment on. There is real room to move around in here, which is not what you usually get in a rancher. The kitchen is new and it is the room you will want to show people. White Shaker cabinets, quartz counters, stainless appliances, and it opens right into the dining area and living room, so you are never cooking in a different room from everybody else. Down the hall, the full bath has new tile, a new vanity and a jetted tub. Your primary bedroom sits at the back of the house with its own bath with a double vanity, and the only way in is through the bedroom. The laundry is on the main floor too, not down in the basement. Then there is the part you cannot see, and on a 1940 house this is the part that counts. New roof. New HVAC with central air. New water heater. Updated electrical and updated plumbing. All of it in 2026. When the inspector walks through, there is nothing left on the list. Out back you get a fenced in approximately 100x150ft lot with an in-ground pool and plenty of yard around it. In-ground pools are rare on this side of the township. A new asphalt driveway handles off-street parking, and there is a clean & dry full basement underneath for storage and future finished space. Upper Chichester puts you right on the I-95 corridor between Philadelphia and Wilmington, with Route 322 and the Commodore Barry Bridge close by for New Jersey. Chichester School District and a real sense of community. Renovated one-story homes in this township have been going under contract in under ten days. Come see this one before it does.
