County records describe a plan to divide a 10.27-acre property along School Lane in Solebury Township into two lots, one of about 3.7 acres and one of about 6.6 acres. The existing house and barn on the smaller lot would be torn down. The county lists four new single-family homes in total, although the written summary can be read as two homes on each lot.

Both lots would use their own on-site wells and septic systems instead of public water and sewer. The site is about 1,000 feet southeast of Phillips Mill Road. The firms on the filing are Barley Custom Homes, L.L.C. and H & K Group, Inc.

No news coverage, township meeting records, hearing notices or developer project page were found for this plan. Details beyond the county record, such as who will live there, are unknown.
