For more than three decades, award-winning builders Ralph Philomeno and Carmen Salamone of Philomeno & Salamone Custom Builders have been involved with the Blue Bell community. Philomeno & Salamone recognized the potential of Blue Bell, as well as possibly contributing to its overall ranking.

This 96 carriage-home community is nestled in Whitpain Township in Montgomery County. Just beyond the entrance in beautifully landscaped surroundings, the homes at Foxcroft offer security, maintenance-free living and spacious interiors. Buyers can choose from four floor plans with more than 2,800 square feet of living space and designed to fit a variety of lifestyles. First- or second-floor master bedrooms; three or four bedrooms; and two or three full baths are all offered. Each home includes a full basement and a two-car garage. A finished basement with a full bath is available in all homes and a third-floor loft in select models.

Prices start in the high $400s with great locations to choose from and several quick-delivery homes also available.

Philomeno & Salamone Custom Builders also offers Deerlake of Blue Bell, another Carriage Home Community, custom single-family homes at Narcissa Woods in Plymouth Meeting, PA and Deefield Estates of Blue Bell, and the 55+ active adult communities of Jefferson Crossing and Sherwood Reserve.
