Heritage Village is a proposed residential community on about 145 acres south of Lisburn Road in South Middleton Township, Cumberland County. County records describe a mix of single-family lots, attached townhouses and apartment buildings, with 721 new homes in total. It follows a conditional use plan the township has already approved.
Local news coverage from mid-2023 reported that a township hearing on the project was continued. The township supervisors felt key details were missing. A fall 2025 township newsletter appears to list Heritage Village as a preliminary subdivision and land development tied to a planned connector road. The size of that phase could not be confirmed, because the newsletter text could not be read. The news article itself was behind an access wall, so only its headline and summary were seen.
What it could mean nearby
- Traffic: the project is linked in township materials to a planned connector road near Lisburn Road. Access and timing of that road are likely to be central issues.
- Housing: 721 homes of mixed types would add a significant number of new households to the area.
- Schools, utilities and open space: no specific details were found in the sources reviewed.
Where it stands
The county's latest filing was in March 2024, and the conditional use plan is described as approved. The project appears to still be moving through township subdivision and land development review. Next steps usually are plan review, a supervisors' vote, and then permits before construction.
