Coming fall 2027
Founders Grove at Hershey West End
Hershey West End’s first neighborhood is coming to the streets beside Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. Take a first look at the townhomes and flats planned for Founders Grove.
The first neighborhood
New homes with an unmistakably Hershey look.
Think of the homes on Hershey’s older streets, where a tidy row of windows gives way to a steep gable and a deep front porch. For Founders Grove, Milton Hershey School and Hankin Group are drawing on the Colonial and Victorian architecture of the town’s 1930s building era.
Between Waltonville and Bullfrog Valley roads, the first 12 acres will bring together for-sale townhomes and flats. The partners marked the start of this residential phase with a ceremonial groundbreaking on November 6, 2026. The neighborhood is announced for fall 2027. Pricing, sales release dates and individual move-in dates have yet to be published.

Founders Grove’s announced townhomes and flats are for purchase. The broader 245-acre plan brings homes, Main Street-style shops and restaurants together around landscaped parks and gathering spaces. Planned paths would lead from neighborhood sidewalks to the existing trails along Bullfrog Valley, Wood and Waltonville roads.

Independent buyer representation
Who’s looking out for you?
Milton Hershey School selected Sally Copeland of Coldwell Banker Realty as its residential real estate partner. A listing agent represents the seller’s interests. When you sign a buyer representation agreement with Team Becker, our job is to represent yours.
See what the price buys.
When pricing comes out, we’ll compare the base price, options, any lot premium and recurring fees with homes you could buy elsewhere in Derry Township.
Understand the agreement.
Before you commit a deposit, we’ll walk through the builder’s deadlines, inspection opportunities and what the paperwork says about construction delays. We’ll help you put questions and requests in writing.
Plan the move you actually need.
Have a home to sell or a lease that ends in the fall? We’ll work backward from that date and compare your options if the construction schedule shifts.
