London Grove Township blends rural charm with suburban access
London Grove Township is located within a rural part of Chester County, around 20 miles from Wilmington, Delaware, and 45 miles from Philadelphia. The town is historically rooted in farmland, and while it has become more suburban over the past few decades, its growth remains slow by design. "The community, and I'd say, the board — they are into preservation," says Realtor Chuck Hammond of Realty One Group Advisors, who's sold homes here for decades. "So they are not just approving everything that comes down the pike, because they also want to preserve the land." People are drawn here for a quiet lifestyle and solid schools. London Grove Township has a mix of eateries and shops while also being a relatively short drive from Oxford and Kennett Square's historic downtown areas, accessible via U.S. Route 1.
Locals often use private land for farming and hunting.

Wooded lots and subdivisions meet different lifestyles
Colonial Revivals, New Traditionals and ranch-styles have a foothold in London Grove Township. Homes may be surrounded by wooded acres or in subdivisions, closer to neighbors. The northern part of town tends to maintain a rural character, while the southern end features more planned developments. "[In the north] they ride horses, they fox hunt, they do not want any development, and it's a beautiful area," Hammond says. "Also, the dairy farms have been passed down through generations." He adds that homes within the township's southern side tend to sell faster because they offer a community feel that people seek. Most properties within the township range from around $350,000 to $725,000, depending on location, size, lot size and acreage. The town's CAP Index Crime Score of 2 out of 10 is lower than the national average of 4.

Outdoor activities include golf, horseback riding and fishing
While not the only park nearby, Goddard Park is the township's main community green space. Its trails weave through wooded areas and past a pond graced by blue heron sightings. The park also hosts a barn-themed playground, swings and sheltered picnic areas. Additionally, it has fenced-in areas for larger and smaller pups to run off leash and a thriving community garden. Inniscrone Golf Club is open to the public and has been a feature of the township since 1999. The Stables at Fox Crossing offers facilities and services for horse riders, including riding lessons. Hammond says locals hunt on private lands. White Clay Creek flows through the township and is a popular fishing area.
