West Chester

This quaint Brandywine Valley town exudes an energetic, youthful vibe. In the bustling downtown area, casual eateries and food-centric events satiate hungry palates, and charming shops line the streets. Downtown West Chester is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and recognized as a Distinctive Destination by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

Its small-town charm and cosmopolitan tastes prompted The Philadelphia Inquirer to call West Chester “ ... one of the world’s most perfect small towns.” For urban pleasures, residents can drive 30 minutes to Wilmington and 45 minutes to Philadelphia's Center City.

West Chester is home to The Watermark at Bellingham.
