Brandywine Hills offers charm, character and easy commutes
You might feel like you’ve stepped into a Thomas Kincaid painting when you enter Brandywine Hills, a charming Wilmington suburb of 262 homes just 3 miles north of the city. Tall lamp posts line the sidewalks, and the neighborhood’s wooded streets are named after literary greats such as Channing, Hawthorne and Tennyson. In addition to the area’s diverse architecture and well-respected public schools, Brandywine Hills is also a 10-minute drive down Interstate 95 from Wilmington’s Amtrak station and about 30 minutes from Philadelphia International Airport.
Unique homes on wooded streets
Here you’ll find homes with unique architectural styles set on lots of about a third of an acre. “No two homes here are alike,” says Steven Anzulewicz, licensed realtor with Keller Williams and 20-year resident of the Brandywine Hills community. There are sprawling ranch-style homes, stone and brick colonials constructed in the 1930s and 1940s and mid-century modern homes built in the 1960s. Three- and four-bedroom residences can range in price from $300,000 to $900,000, with the majority of houses priced around $500,000.
Brandywine School District includes career and IB programs
Anzulewicz notes that the community itself is as diverse as its architecture. “Brandywine Hills has always attracted individuals from varied backgrounds,” he says. Many of those people move to the area to enroll their children in the Brandywine School District, a system with an A-minus rating from Niche and a student-teacher ratio of 13 to 1. Students might begin their educational journeys at Harlan Elementary School, which has a C-plus Niche rating, where they can participate in an elementary sports league and explore the field of robotics. At P.S. duPont Middle School, rated A by Niche, students can study world languages and cultures and choose from extracurricular activities such as Science Olympiad and diversity club. Mount Pleasant High School, home of the Green Knights, has an enrollment of approximately 1,150 students and an A-minus Niche rating. Here, students can choose from a wide range of academic options, including career and technical education courses, fine arts and music offerings and the International Baccalaureate program. “The IB program here is incredible,” Anzulewicz says.
Downtown Wilmington is just a 10-minute drive from home
Another perk of living in Brandywine Hills is its proximity to downtown Wilmington. In about a 10-minute drive, you can be in the middle of the trendy downtown district, surrounded by a variety of retail shops, cafes and bistros. If you’d rather stay even closer to home, you can pick up a latte from Sleeping Bird Coffee or a wood-fired pizza from La Pizzeria Metro. “There are a few restaurants and small shops that are walkable to the community, but you will have to drive a few minutes if you want Wegmans or Sprouts,” Anzulewicz says.
