Best of Both Worlds: Enjoy Suburban Comfort with Easy Access to Philadelphia
When You Want Space to Breathe—But Don’t Want to Leave the City Behind
For many homebuyers, it’s no longer about choosing between city living and the suburbs. It’s about finding a place that gives you access to both. And in that sweet spot sits Kennett Square, PA: a vibrant, walkable town surrounded by nature, but just an hour from the heart of Philadelphia.
At Montchanin Builders, we’ve designed two communities in Kennett Square that embrace this exact lifestyle:
- Kennett Pointe — a stylish, move-in-ready townhome community at the edge of town
- The Enclave at Longwood Preserve — a fresh opportunity for suburban luxury with flexible layouts and modern design
Whether you’re commuting, visiting family, or just want the option to head into the city for a concert, dinner, or game, our homes in the Kennett Square area offer all the access with none of the stress.

What You Can Do With the Extra Time (and Space)
Imagine starting your Saturday morning with a walk through the Kennett Square Farmers Market, followed by coffee at Philter or brunch at Talula’s Table. Maybe you spend the afternoon hiking the trails at ChesLen Preserve or enjoying a picnic at Longwood Gardens.
And if your weekend needs a little more energy? Hop on I-95 and be in Philly in time for a Sixers, Eagles, or Phillies game, or dinner in Fishtown.
That’s the beauty of this location. You don’t have to pick one lifestyle—you get both.
