The Township of Concord is an exceptionally attractive area located in the historic Brandywine Valley in Delaware County. This beautiful valley was fi rst inhabited by the Lenni Lenape Indians. Founded in 1683, Concord Township was one of the original Penns Grant. The Township of Concord was so named to remember the harmonious feelings which prevailed among the early settlers.

Concord Township is a Township of the second class, which means it is generally more rural and agricultural in character than a Township of the fi rst class. Toll Brothers has tried to capture the rural nature of this Township in the community design of Estates at Garnet Valley.

Concord Township was laid out in a rectangular shape with Concord Road running down the center of the Township from Bethel to Thornbury. This road was laid out in 1682 and was opened to the public soon after.

Estates at Garnet Valley is located near the center of Concord Township. Wise planning has made it possible to live in an area that still has a country feeling, surrounded by mature woodlands that provide privacy and a beautiful landscape.

While driving through Concord Township near the intersection of Polecat Road and Ivy Mills Road, you can view the former mill ruins. This was a family business that dates back to 1729 and is the oldest business house still standing in the United States. This is just one of many historical houses in Delaware County.

As a resident of Estates at Garnet Valley, you will enjoy the prestige, history, beauty and convenience that Delaware County has to offer.
