Andalusia, PA

Tucked into the southern tip of Bucks County's Bensalem Township, Andalusia sits right along the Delaware River directly on the Philadelphia border. The neighborhood takes its name from the historic Andalusia estate, a sprawling nineteenth-century property and National Historic Landmark that still overlooks the water today. For prospective homebuyers, the area offers a relaxed, established setting filled with early twentieth-century single-family homes, leafy residential streets, and scenic river views that give the neighborhood its distinct character.
