Pennsylvania Real Estate & Relocation Guide

Lionville, Pennsylvania

Population: 6,298

Located in Chester County

Lionville, located in the heart of Chester County and just east of Philadelphia is also part of the famous Brandywine Valley area. This is a city with deep roots in the history of the country, and even though it is growing fairly quickly, it still manages to retain a small town, friendly feel.

Here, homes are lovingly restored and show the charm of small town life in the Colonial, Federal, Greek Revival, Victorian and twentieth century styles. Many of these, along with designated Historic Districts, are part of this summer’s tour itineraries. In Pennsylvania, Chester County is second only to Philadelphia in the number of properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Observe the preservation and adaptive reuse of our period architecture – to inspire ideas for your own lifestyle.

This lovely piece of the American country does come with a price though! Most homes here are considered upscale, and most homes start in the $200,000’s. That is not to say there are not homes priced lower than that, but for the most part, residents here have paid $200,000 and up for their homes, new or historic. New development is currently underway, and reflects the higher prices of the housing market. A two bedroom home sells for between $200,000 to $300,000, there are some three bedroom homes in the $300,000 range, and some four bedroom homes for $400,000 and up.
