Villanova blends landmark university grounds, established residential streets, estate properties, and convenient SEPTA access across Radnor and Lower Merion Townships.
Villanova is a Main Line community spanning portions of Radnor Township in Delaware County and Lower Merion Township in Montgomery County. Villanova University anchors the area, while Lancaster Avenue and nearby residential roads connect homes, campus facilities, local businesses and SEPTA service. Because Villanova is not a separate municipality, an exact street address determines township, taxes, public-school district and municipal services.
Housing ranges from stone colonials and renovated mid-century homes to historic estates and newer custom residences. Villanova University’s 260-acre main campus is a major local landmark, and its 112-acre Cabrini Campus is scheduled to open for academic use in fall 2026, expanding the university’s nearby footprint.
The Meghan Chorin Team brings more than 20 years of Main Line experience and over $1 billion in closed transactions to Villanova buyers and sellers. The team evaluates each property by its exact municipality, school assignment, condition, lot characteristics and current comparable sales.
Villanova addresses in Radnor Township are served by Radnor Township School District, while addresses in Lower Merion Township are served by Lower Merion School District. Buyers should confirm the municipality and current school assignment for the exact property.
The university contributes lectures, athletics, performances, public events and landmark architecture to daily life. Its 260-acre main campus remains the community’s defining institution, with the nearby Cabrini Campus beginning academic operations in fall 2026.
Villanova Station provides SEPTA Paoli/Thorndale Regional Rail service, while the Villanova South and Stadium stops serve the Norristown High Speed Line, now designated the M1 under SEPTA Metro.
Villanova’s housing includes fieldstone residences, traditional colonials, renovated mid-century homes, carriage-house influences and modern custom construction. Lot size, architectural integrity, renovation quality and municipality create substantial differences between properties.
Villanova market figures can change sharply because relatively few homes sell each month and data providers use different boundaries. Realtor.com reported a June 2026 median sold price of $1.45 million, while Redfin reported about $1.30 million for the three months ending May 2026.

Villanova addresses fall in two townships. Radnor Township properties are served by Radnor Township School District, while Lower Merion Township properties are served by Lower Merion School District. A Villanova mailing address alone does not confirm the district or individual school assignment, so buyers should verify both directly for the exact property.
Redfin classified Villanova as very competitive for the three months ending May 2026, reporting a median 21 days on market and an average sale-to-list ratio of 103.8%. Only six homes sold in May, so results can change substantially from month to month. Buyers should evaluate the current listing, recent comparable sales and competing demand rather than rely on a single market average.
