About this Recovery House

A Men's Recovery Residence on Penn Avenue

The house serves men only, and Condor House runs a second men's home a few doors down at 117 Penn Avenue along with a women's home on Line Lexington Road. Keeping the men's houses on the same street lets residents move between them without leaving the neighborhood if a change in structure or housemates ever becomes necessary.

Licensed Under Pennsylvania's Act 59

The Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs licenses this house as a recovery house under Act 59 of 2017. Licensure in Pennsylvania is voluntary, which means the operator sought out a level of state review that many comparable houses skip. It says nothing on its own about house rules, fees or staffing, so those are still worth asking about directly.

Penn Avenue in Hatfield Township

Penn Avenue runs through a residential section of Hatfield Township in the North Penn area of Montgomery County, within a short drive of Lansdale's downtown and the Route 309 corridor. That corridor holds the pharmacies, outpatient offices and entry-level employers that most residents rely on early in recovery.

Montgomery County's Recovery Housing Landscape

Montgomery County sits directly northwest of Philadelphia and carries a dense mix of licensed and unlicensed recovery homes across its boroughs. Hatfield's spot between Lansdale and Montgomeryville makes it one of several North Penn towns where sober living has taken root, and men looking in this part of the county have real options within a few miles of Penn Avenue.

What to Ask Before Moving In

Condor House handles applications for all three of its Hatfield houses. A prospective resident should ask which house has an open bed, what the weekly cost covers, and how the operator handles a relapse, since a state license does not spell out any of it.
