Rich in history and modern amenities

Today, this largely residential area in the city of Chester offers natural beauty and suburban privacy, all with the convenience of living close to a big city.
“This part of Chester is seeing a lot of growth right now,” says Jessica Hall, a realtor with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate and a local Chester resident. “There is a variety of dining and entertainment choices, and you’ve got shopping centers with large retailers. There are also plenty of job opportunities, with the Amazon warehouse and the upcoming Lego factory.”

This residential community offers shared amenities such as a 25-meter pool, clubhouse and tennis courts. Homes in Rivers Bend have four to five bedrooms and a median price of $515,000.
