The Connected Corner

Living in Feasterville-Trevose, Bucks County

Lower Southampton's twin communities — a preserved farm at the center, Neshaminy schools, and the shortest average drive in Bucks County.

Feasterville and Trevose share a hyphen, a township — Lower Southampton — and a claim few communities can make: almost nothing in the region is far from here. The Turnpike's Bensalem interchange, I-95, Route 1, Street Road, and the Trevose rail station on SEPTA's West Trenton Line all converge around this corner of the county, which has made it a launching pad for commuters in every direction for seventy years.

Inside the corridors, the community is greener and more rooted than passers-through realize. Playwicki Farm preserves more than 100 acres of township farmland with trails and a historic farmstead; the neighborhoods run to solid postwar singles on quiet streets; and Neshaminy schools serve it all. It is honest, convenient, well-located Lower Bucks — and the market has never stopped appreciating that.
