Flourtown is 10 minutes up Bethlehem Pike from Henry Meigs’s Chestnut Hill office, in Springfield Township. He works both tiers of a market that runs from mid-century Colonials to new construction.
Flourtown is two markets wearing one name, and July against June shows it plainly. July’s four closings ran $450,000 to $765,000, the established-Colonial core of the market. June’s nine included five at or above $1 million, several of them newer construction on Creekside and Whitemarsh Drives, and its median more than doubled July’s. Which tier you are shopping matters more than the town number.
So the first question is not what Flourtown costs. It is which Flourtown you are shopping. Established Colonials, Cape Cods and ranch homes trade in one band with the inspection profile of their age. New construction trades in another, with a different negotiation, a builder’s warranty and a very different set of things to verify before you sign.
Transaction costs here are straightforward. Springfield Township charges a 2% transfer tax, 1% local and 1% to the Commonwealth, and buyer and seller customarily split it evenly, so at July’s $572,500 median the buyer’s half is about $5,725.
Read the buyer guide →The July median time on market was four days, and three of the four closings went under agreement within four days of listing. The one long sit took 91 days and closed at 92 percent of its original asking price, which is the arithmetic of overpricing in a market this small.
If you own one of Flourtown’s older Colonials, the new construction nearby is a complication worth planning around rather than ignoring. Buyers will have seen it. Being clear about what your house offers that a new build does not, whether that is lot, trees, location or finished space for the money, is a more productive position than pricing as though the comparison is not happening.

Flourtown sits along Bethlehem Pike in Springfield Township, Montgomery County, zip code 19031, next to Wyndmoor and Erdenheim. For the housing stock, Fort Washington State Park access and the monthly numbers, there is a fuller guide.
Because two tiers trade under one name. June 2026 closed nine sales with five at $1 million or above, including a cluster of newer construction, which pushed that month’s median to $1,075,000. July closed four established homes between $450,000 and $765,000, and the median fell to $572,500. Flourtown pairs established mid-century housing with a meaningful tier of new construction, so a single median describes neither well.
The negotiation, the timeline and the due diligence all change. Builder contracts are typically the builder’s own paperwork rather than the standard Pennsylvania agreement, deposits and change-order terms work differently, and the warranty replaces much of what a resale inspection would surface. None of that is a reason to avoid new construction. It is a reason to have someone reading the contract who does not work for the builder.
Yes, and that is worth noting because it is not true everywhere nearby. Flourtown sits entirely within Springfield Township, the same township as Wyndmoor, so the municipal rules and the resale requirements are the same across the community. Oreland straddles Springfield and Upper Dublin, and Glenside spans Cheltenham and Abington, so in those towns the answer can change block to block.
That is the real Flourtown decision and the two paths negotiate very differently. Call 484-571-4577 and we can walk through both together before you commit to one.
