The developer plans to tear down the existing house and the three-apartment building on a roughly one-acre lot at 4315 Skippack Pike in Skippack Township. In their place it would build three new structures. The main one would be a commercial building with a design center on the ground floor and three apartments above. The other two would be a 2,000 sq ft commercial building and a 2,000 sq ft garage/storage building. The site would also get a new parking lot and sidewalks. County records list about 6,820 sq ft of non-residential space in total.
A township Planning Commission agenda from April 2025 lists an application for this address. It describes a design center with second-floor apartments and names a different company, W.B. Homes, Inc., as the applicant. No minutes, approvals, news coverage or public opposition were found.
What it could mean nearby
