    "Easy access to 95 and route 1. Nearby stores within a 5 mile radius in both directions. Appo School district is preferred for most. Our Neighborhood is tucked back away from any main roads. Traffic is non existent and neighborhood is quiet. Traveling to local restaurants and entertainment is easy and within ten minutes. Commute to PHILADELPHIA and airport is approximately one hour. Traveling during summer travel and holiday weekends is painful on 95 and surrounding roads with influx and outflux of people traveling. "
