What Preserve at Marsh Creek Is
Preserve at Marsh Creek is a Toll Brothers 55+ master-planned community in Upper Uwchlan Township, straddling the Downingtown and Chester Springs areas of Chester County. The development combines two home collections within a single community campus, allowing buyers to choose between single-family homes (Regency Collection) and attached carriage-style townhomes (Carriage Collection) while sharing the same clubhouse, pool, and amenity package. The community was designed around and adjacent to Marsh Creek State Park — 1,769 acres of Chester County open space with a 535-acre lake, hiking and equestrian trails, and sailing.
The location in Upper Uwchlan puts Preserve at Marsh Creek between the Route 30 Bypass (Exton corridor) to the south and Route 100 to the west, with the PA Turnpike accessible in approximately 10 minutes. Jefferson Paoli Hospital is 15 miles east; Penn Medicine Chester County Hospital is 15 miles north near West Chester. The community is built in partnership between Toll Brothers and McKee Builders.
Marsh Creek State Park: The Setting Advantage
Most 55+ communities in Chester County are in suburban residential settings. Preserve at Marsh Creek is the exception: it is positioned adjacent to a 1,769-acre state park with a 535-acre lake, equestrian facilities, sailing, fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. For buyers who want to walk out of their community into genuine natural open space — not a community walking loop, but a real state park — this is one of the only communities in the Philadelphia suburbs that delivers it. Chester County's scenic rolling hills frame the park on all sides.
