A home near the station, a townhouse with less exterior upkeep or a property with a yard to grow into: Radnor gives you different ways to put down roots. Start with what you'd like close at hand, and we'll help you work through the homes that fit.
Explore this guide
At a glance
Homes: Colonials, stone houses, midcentury homes, estates, townhouses and condominiums.
Getting around: Compare the complete route to the station or workplace from each address.
Worth weighing: A community name does not establish walkability, maintenance needs or the assigned school.
Family life in Radnor
The Radnor Trail, Willows Park and Fenimore Woods offer different ways to get outside together. Pick the place you'd be most likely to return to and try the trip from a home you like. If recreation programs are part of the plan, check the current schedule and registration details while you're exploring.
A yard, home office and separate play space can all be useful, but see how they connect. Check storage by the main entrance, the distance between bedrooms and how much outdoor maintenance would fall to you and your family.
Schools and childcare
Confirm the municipality, district and assigned schools for the exact property. A postal community name is not an assignment. Relevant district starting points include Radnor; these links are resources, not a determination of eligibility for a particular address.
Use Pennsylvania's COMPASS child care search to start a provider search. Contact providers about age groups, hours, availability and pickup arrangements, then try the trip from the home.
Finding the right home here
For a detached home, compare roof and system condition with the upkeep of the grounds. For a townhouse or condominium, ask which exterior services are included and review the association's planned work.
Our home-buying page explains how we help you compare properties and prepare for the purchase.
Daily life, parking and getting around
Downtown Wayne and a rail station may look close on a map. Try the whole journey, including parking and the last bit of the walk, at the time you'd normally travel. For each home, confirm the municipality and school district so you can plan with the right information.
Use SEPTA's current trip planner for the journey and travel time you expect to keep. If you drive, verify parking terms and access for the specific home.
