Assessment note: this home is assessed at $3,882,440, well below the ~$5,461,268 its asking price implies at Delaware County's common level ratio (54.6%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $32,217/year. Worth pricing in.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($3,882,440, 2021 base year) × current millage. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2025 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only.
