A hilly suburb minutes from Philadelphia

Attractive Hills Wooded

With SEPTA trains whisking commuters into Downtown Philadelphia in roughly 18 minutes, Wynnewood is the perfect suburban community: attractive homes along hilly, tree-lined streets, beautiful parks with everything from carousels and playgrounds to green space for community events, great shops and restaurants, and a nearby college (in this case, Haverford College). Wynnewood is even close to golf courses, with Merion Golf Club and Karakung Golf Course both located just outside the neighborhood.

Wynnewood's ideal location places it between Merion Station and Havertown, minutes from West Fairmount Park. While mostly residential, Wynnewood's shopping area is located along Lancaster Avenue at the north end of the neighborhood. Here, you'll find everything from bistros and cafes to a Whole Foods Market and large chain stores like Bed, Bath & Beyond. Wynnewood is home to Lankenau Medical Center, located on the south side of the community. Popular parks include South Ardmore Park, Wynnewood Valley Park, and Penn Wynne Park.
