Neighborhood

Tucked away between Wyndmoor and Wissahickon Valley Park, Chestnut Hill’s upscale community and proximity to local and private schools are appealing for families. Its history is pretty neat – the area was a popular summer destination during the American Revolutionary War era because of its higher elevation and cooler weather.

Along Germantown Avenue – the neighborhood’s business district – is where you’ll discover spas, accessory stores, artisan shops, and bakeries. It’s a charming little section of town, enhanced by cobblestone streets, Colonial-style storefronts, and lush gardens. Locals enjoy a pint and meal at Campbell’s Place, followed by a scoop of their favorite flavor at Bredenbeck’s Ice Cream Parlor.

There’s plenty of green space surrounding Chestnut Hill – go for a hike on the twisting trails at Wissahickon Valley Park or see the historic landmarks at Morris Arboretum.
