Newlin Ridge is a proposed subdivision of 17 single-family homes on about 67 acres. The land straddles Newlin Township and West Bradford Township in Chester County. County records also mention open space and a lot line adjustment, which shifts a property boundary.
West Bradford Planning Commission records from 2025 give more detail. Nearly all the homes would be in Newlin, and the West Bradford part would hold one house lot and one open space lot. The homes would sit along a private road, and the entrance would be in West Bradford. Each home would use its own on-lot septic system. Public water would be extended to the site from a nearby street.
The records show open items, including stormwater and sewage-planning reviews by the state, and a question about road right-of-way width. No news coverage or opposition was found.
What it could mean nearby
- Access would be from a private drive entering in West Bradford, so any added traffic would reach the public road network there.
- The plan includes open space, and its size and how it would be protected are not confirmed in the sources found.
- Public water would be extended to the site, which the West Bradford records tie to a nearby street.
- Homes would use on-lot septic rather than public sewer, so state sewage-planning review applies.
Where it stands
The West Bradford Planning Commission reviewed the plan in April, June and August 2025, and the county's latest filing is dated March 2025. No approval was found. Next steps usually are resolving review comments, then township supervisors' votes on preliminary and final plans in each township.

How to comment officially
For this project: The planning commissions and boards of supervisors in Newlin and West Bradford townships review the plan, and residents can comment at their public meetings listed on each township's website.

- Speak at the Newlin Township planning commission or governing body (board of supervisors or council) meeting when the plan is on the agenda. Public comment there goes on the official record.
- Or email or mail a written comment to the Newlin Township manager or zoning officer, name the plan and its address, and ask that your comment be entered into the record.
