Emilie House

About Emilie House

Emilie House is a sober living operator based in Levittown, Pennsylvania, running five licensed recovery homes across Bucks County. Gary and Micki Kaisinger founded the family business in 2000 and still manage it directly, which has kept the operator's approach consistent as it grew from one house to five.

A Family-Owned Levittown Sober Living Operator

Emilie House is a husband-and-wife operation rather than a corporate housing company, and that shows up in how it runs: no call center, no regional management layer, just the Kaisingers and the live-in managers at each house. The trade-off for a smaller operator is direct accountability. A resident's complaint or request reaches an owner, not a shift supervisor several levels removed from the decision.

Five Licensed Recovery Homes in Levittown

Every Emilie House property carries a full license from the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs:

• Emilie House, on Bristol-Emilie Road, for men.
• Emilie House, on Whitewood Drive, for men.
• Emilie House, on Ivory Rock Road, for women.
• Emilie House, on Parkside Circle, for women.
• Emilie House, on Woodbine Road, for women.

All five sit inside Levittown's original postwar street grid, close enough to each other that moving between houses does not mean changing towns, bus routes or outpatient providers.

Serving Men and Women Separately

Emilie House splits its portfolio evenly by need rather than by size: two men's houses and three women's houses, each single-gender from the bedrooms to the common areas. A prospective resident applies to the house matching their gender, and the operator places them from there.

What Pennsylvania Licensure Confirms

Pennsylvania's Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs licenses recovery houses under Act 59, though licensure stays voluntary statewide. Emilie House has chosen to license all five of its properties, four as for-profit facilities and one, the Woodbine Road house, as a nonprofit. Licensure means the state has inspected the property and holds a compliance record on file, which a family checking a Levittown sober house from out of state can verify directly with the state.

A $200 Weekly Structure Across the Portfolio

Every Emilie House resident pays the same $200 weekly fee and follows the same expectations: twelve-step meeting attendance, house chores and a regulated daily schedule, with a live-in manager on site instead of shift staff. Keeping the structure identical across five addresses is what lets the Kaisingers run the business without a larger administrative staff.

Recovery Housing in Bucks County

Levittown sits in lower Bucks County along the Philadelphia border, and Emilie House's entire portfolio is built around that geography. Residents reach lower Bucks County's hospitals and outpatient providers, the Route 13 retail corridor, and SEPTA's regional rail line into Philadelphia without leaving the community where they live.
