Located in Downingtown, Chester County, Downing Forge by the Brandywine is a resort-like active adult (55+) residential community in one of the Main Line's most convenient locations.

It was completed in 2003 with only 112 home-sites on lushly landscaped cul-de-sacs. Originally developed by the late Jack Loew, Downing Forge sits on the banks of the Brandywine River and borders the historic borough of Downingtown. Homes range from 1,600-3,000 square feet, all with full basements. 

The stylish single homes deliver one-floor living at its best. Open floor plans, high ceilings, large windows, great natural light, fireplaces, huge walk-in closets, spacious bathrooms, convenient laundry rooms, lofts and low maintenance decks create a comfortable lifestyle. All homes have at least two bedrooms, while many have either a third bedroom or loft.

Full basements and 1 or 2 car attached garages provide all the space you'll need for your car and storage.

Downing Forge has a large clubhouse with outdoor heated pool, tennis/pickleball courts, fitness center and bocce court providing many social opportunities perfect for your active lifestyle — and entertaining family and friends.

Pets are welcome. 

A perfect retirement community, a homeowners association provides a low maintenance lifestyle for over 55 active adults that's surprisingly affordable.
