Community & Connection in Kennett Square
While every amenity you need is available within the walls of Friends Home, sometimes it’s nice to get out on the town.
Walk out our front door and turn left onto State Street, and just like that, you’re in the heart of historic Kennett Square, Pennsylvania.
Here, you can:
- Explore local shops
- Eat at the local restaurants
- Get your hair done at the local barber shops or beauty salons
- Check out a book or two at the library
- Get a workout in at the YMCA
The town is full of possibilities waiting to be explored.
A Place to Truly Live, Laugh & Love
Join a community where Friends become family.
