Chestnuthill, PA Mobile Home for Sale

Tucked within Monroe County, often considered the eastern gateway to the Poconos, lies Chestnuthill Township, where quiet stretches of farmland meet rolling forested woods and rural vistas. Chestnuthill was founded in 1763 when an abundance of chestnut trees grew throughout the landscape. Though the trees were largely decimated by the Chestnut Blight of the early 20th century, the township retains its name, as well as its idiosyncratic spelling. Today, this town of around 17,000 people has several residential enclaves offering peace and privacy. Brodheadsville is the community's commercial hub on the south side of town, featuring a mix of chains, mom-and-pop stores and other local businesses along U.S. Route 209.
