About

Village Center

Just up the hill from SEPTA’s Bethayres Regional Rail Station lies the historic village of Bethayres. Today Bethayres contains a mix of residences and businesses that fill the historic buildings along Huntingdon Pike in Lower Moreland Township. With a variety of retail shops, services and restaurants, historic Bethayres offers a little bit of everything for everyone.

The Neighborhood

There is a lot to love about Bethayres. For those who choose to stay, the adjacent neighborhoods on either side of Huntingdon Pike provide easy commuting to center city and beyond. A walkable neighborhood today, improvements are planned to make pedestrian access much easier. The newest section of the Pennypack Trail passes through the Bethayres neighborhood connecting 17 miles along the Pennypack Creek down to the Delaware River in northeast Philadelphia. Some of Pennsylvania’s highest rated schools, Lower Moreland High School and the Murray Avenue Middle School, are just a short walk away. Also in the neighborhood are the Huntingdon Valley Library and the new 31 acre Valley Center Park.

The Township

Historic Bethayres lies entirely within Lower Moreland Township at the center of Huntingdon Valley. Lower Moreland Township boasts some of the highest standards of living in the greater Philadelphia area. Surrounded by over 1000 acres of open space, Lower Moreland has a rural character and a small-town feel, all less than 30 minutes by train to Center City Philadelphia.
