Horsham, Pennsylvania Real Estate

Horsham is a town in Pennsylvania. Many people choose to call this place home. It is certainly not a surprise when considering the abundance of things to see and do within the community.

The area dates back to Colonial times of the 1600’s, and the name of the town is reference to a “place of horses.” The land was originally mapped out to be a town and the area was allotted to four different people, and they were Samuel Carpenter, Mary Blunston, Joseph Fisher and George Palmer. Samuel Carpenter was the individual who lived in the town and, it was believed, named it. As time continued, people started to move into the area and built homes and created businesses. A mill, store, school and various shops came into existence during the earlier years.
