The neighborhood is located within the unincorporated community of Glen Mills in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. Gradyville is to the northeast of the community, while Lennie is to the south. Other nearby neighborhoods include Thornton, Wawa, Lima, and Edgemont.
The greater area was part of the land granted to William Penn around 1681. One of the first settlers was George Cheyney. The ground was later broken into parcels and sold.
Within the neighborhood is The Inn at Grace Winery, a historical winery that sits on 35 acres in the Brandywine Valley. Initially, the property belonged to William Penn. In 1753, the Sweetwater farm was sold by Alexander Hemphill to James and Ann Hemphill, his son and daughter-in-law. Around 1776, James joined the revolutionary army, serving under General George Washington. In the days following the Battle of Brandywine, the farm was ransacked by British troops.
In 1810, the Okie family purchased the farm and added the 1815 wing. The farm would pass through several owners before being bought by Linda Kaat and turned into bed and breakfast. Kaat sold bed and breakfast to Grace Le Vine. The property was taken over by her brother, Chris, and his wife, Vicki. They converted the 1750s barn into a winery.

My husband and I were in a car accident and our car got t-boned. Andrew Valentin was the lawyer we chose to represent us. Andrew fought on our behalf with the other party's insurance company, making sure everything was made right. Between regular check-ins on us and follow through on the case, Andrew made sure we were well taken care of.
