About Westover

Hills

Westover Hills, located between Kennett Pike (DE-52) and the Brandywine Creek corridor, is a residential and wooded Greenville neighborhood with curving lanes and mid-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Kennett Pike and Stone Brook Drive area, where landscaped entrances, low-slung offices, and small local storefronts set a quiet, polished rhythm. Nearby anchors such as the Delaware Art Museum, Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library, and the Brandywine Zoo shape weekend routines with galleries, gardens, and riverside paths. Architecture leans toward ranches and split-levels tucked behind mature trees. Daily life centers on scenic drives, trail walks, and coffee stops along Route 52. The geography reads as suburban-calm with quick turns into the Brandywine Valley’s parkland.
