Wilkinson Country ... a Beautiful Place to be

Wilkinson communities grow up in the countryside of Chester County, Pennsylvania and New Castle County, Delaware.  Here the picturesque Brandywine Valley’s rolling hills are ablaze in fiery autumn color, blanketed peacefully in winter white, bejeweled with spring flowers and lushly robed in summer’s brilliant green. Any time of the year it’s a beautiful place to be.

More than just beautiful, however, our region is alive with activity and steeped in culture. From the thundering hooves of steeplechasers at the Point-to-Point races at Winterthur to the floral grandeur of seemingly endless acres of formal gardens, fountains and horticultural wonder at Longwood Gardens, the Brandywine region offers a concentration of national treasures like nowhere else.

It is draped in the history of colonial battlefields and close to the birthplace of American liberty.  The chateaus of the DuPonts are a stone’s throw from quaint historic villages.  And Chadds Ford is the home of three generations of America’s best-known painting family — the Wyeths.

It is an area of hi-tech invention and hotbed of pharmaceutical innovation. And it is an antique hunter’s treasurehouse.

It is a region of unparalleled scholarship with many of the finest schools and universities at your doorstep, yet constantly presents opportunities to play -- with countless concerts, festivals and local events.  

Sparkling beaches and roaring surf are as close as snow-clad mountain resorts ... all just a short drive away. Our Brandywine Valley is a paradise of contrasts!

Convenient to the culture and industry of Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and New York, yet always a private country enclave – this “Wilkinson Country” is an enriching experience in lifestyle.
