About this project
W.B. Homes proposes splitting the roughly 4.6-acre site at 250 W. Ridge Pike in Limerick Township into two lots. The existing commercial building on the Ridge Pike corner stays, and ten townhouses are planned farther east along Sunset Road, served by a new dead-end private road. The county generally supports the plan but raised comments on driveway lengths and sidewalks.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: Driveways too short, so a parked vehicle could block the sidewalk, Sidewalks should be at least 5 feet wide, Requested waiver for sidewalks on both sides of private Road A, Sidewalk on Sunset Road should extend to Ridge Pike, Sidewalk must not interfere with Limerick Power Plant siren, ADA ramps and crosswalk needed if sidewalk added on east side of Road A

W.B. Homes wants to divide a site of about 4.6 acres at 250 W. Ridge Pike in Limerick Township into two lots. The commercial building on the Ridge Pike corner would stay. Ten townhouses would go farther east, along Sunset Road.
The townhouses would sit on a new dead-end private road. That means the road would be owned and maintained by the development, not by the township.
The township needs two approvals. One is a land development plan. The other is a conditional use, which lets a use go ahead if it meets set conditions. A township planning commission agenda from January 2026 listed both for early discussion. No news coverage, opposition or approval decision was found. No buyer or occupant has been named.
What it could mean nearby
- Ten new homes would be added on Sunset Road, reached by a new private dead-end street.
- The county asked for changes to driveway lengths and sidewalks. One tracking site also mentions sidewalk links to Ridge Pike.
- The private road would be maintained by the development, not the township, according to the tracking site.
Where it stands
As of the January 2026 township agenda, the plan was in early review, and no decision had been found. Next come more planning commission and township supervisor review, a decision on the conditional use, and then plan approval once the comments are addressed.
