Selling Your Home in Kirkwood, PA
Kirkwood is a small village along Route 472 in Colerain Township, in the farm country of southern Lancaster County — about 6 miles from Quarryville and 7 miles from Oxford. It has had its own post office since 1856, and it still feels like the heart of a quiet rural crossroads.
Covered bridges and country roads
Colerain Township is a place of back roads, open fields and old landmarks. The White Rock Forge Covered Bridge spans the west branch of the Octoraro, and the township is also home to the Andrews Bridge Historic District — both listed on the National Register. Students attend the Solanco School District, and village life still centers on churches, neighbors and the farm.
Who’s buying here
Kirkwood itself is home to a few hundred people, while the surrounding township counts nearly 4,000. Households run large — more than 3 people per home on average — and the median age sits in the mid-30s, a sign of young, growing families. Amish families have farmed around Kirkwood since the 1930s, and today Plain families looking for farms, shops and land are a steady part of the buyer pool, alongside families who want country space within reach of Quarryville and Oxford.
