Flourtown is a former mill hub with a close-knit environment

Founded in 1743 and named after a former flour mill where early settlers came to have their wheat ground by the millers, Flourtown is a peaceful community that manages to retain its small-town feel. "It really has that small-town feel," remarks Patricia Billock, a resident and Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices. The welcoming, family-oriented vibe is what makes this place so special to the locals. Flourtown is roughly 15 miles outside of Philadelphia’s Center City. Attendees of annual events, like James A. Cisco Park's Concerts in the Park, are a great example of the welcoming atmosphere and sense of community. The water is fully stocked by Springfield Township, so don’t forget to bring your fishing rod. "You'll see little neighborhoods around throwing block parties every now and then as well,” Billock says.

Some houses date back to the 1700s

A variety of single-family residences can be seen on the suburban blocks of Flourtown. "You have some newer homes, many single-family homes from the 1950s and even some that date back to the 1700s," remarks Billock, who notes a wide range of house types. “I just made a sale of an item that belonged to the Underground Railroad.” Beautiful tree-lined sidewalks lead you through Flourtown's residential districts, where you can see a mix of Colonial Revivals, Dutch colonials and Cape Cods. Most dwellings are 2,000 square feet and sit on 12,200 square foot lots. Homes in Flourtown range in price from $350,000 to $1 million. Realtor Jennifer Rinella of BHHS Fox & Roach Chestnut Hill says that some homes will cost as much as $2 million. She adds that being close to New York City, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C., is a draw. “It doesn’t cost as much to live here as it does there,” she says. “Nobody really knows about this neighborhood.” She adds that the neighborhood does have an HOA.

Local restaurants range from delis to Irish pubs

The Philadelphia area is known for its vibrant food scene. Numerous eateries along Bethlehem Pike are perfect for a night out on the town.

Additionally, many people love to eat at Hallagan's Pub. For decades, guests have been welcomed with traditional pub meals and TVs to watch Philadelphia sports at this family-run Irish tavern. Famous for its Italian fare, Scoogis is another eatery worth checking out. On the other hand, El Limon has a vibrant environment and delicious Mexican food. Halligan’s Pub is an Irish pub that serves American comfort food for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
