Havertown PA homes for sale sit on the Delaware County side of the Main Line, and The McKnight Team helps buyers and sellers compete here. Havertown is the postal name for Haverford Township, a municipality of just over 50,000 people that ranks sixteenth largest in Pennsylvania and is made up of villages rather than one center.
What the Havertown Numbers Mean
Havertown stays one of the tightest, fastest markets we cover. Half of recent sales went under contract within 5 days, the quickest median in our footprint alongside Ardmore and Broomall, and the typical sale finished at 103.3% of asking. The average time to contract is just 13 days. The median sale price was $572,500, with current listings asking a median of $585,000, so asking and closing remain close. With 276 closings in six months against 39 homes for sale, Haverford Township demand keeps outrunning what little supply comes on.
What Is It Like to Live in Havertown, PA?
Haverford Township is a collection of villages, including Brookline, Manoa, Llanerch, Oakmont, Coopertown, and Havertown proper. It grew up along the Main Line rail corridor and the old trolley routes, which is why the street grid feels denser and more walkable than most townships its size.
Transit here is unusual. Beyond the SEPTA Paoli/Thorndale Line nearby, the township has seven stops on the M, the light metro line formerly called the Norristown High Speed Line and renamed in 2025: Township Line Road, Penfield, Beechwood-Brookline, Wynnewood Road, Ardmore Junction, Ardmore Avenue, and Haverford. That line runs to the 69th Street Transit Center, where it connects to the Market-Frankford Line into Center City. Few townships in our footprint have that many rail stops inside their borders.
The township also holds two championship golf courses. Merion Golf Club has hosted the U.S. Open five times, in 1934, 1950, 1971, 1981, and 2013. Llanerch Country Club hosted the PGA Championship in 1958. Haverford College and its arboretum campus sit at the township’s northern edge along Lancaster Avenue.
What Kinds of Homes Are for Sale in Havertown?
The housing stock is mostly stone and brick colonials, twins, and Tudors built between the 1920s and the 1950s, on lots smaller than you would find in Montgomery County at the same price. That density is part of the appeal, since a lot of the township is genuinely walkable to a rail stop or a commercial street. Newer construction is limited by how little open land remains. At a $572,500 median with the average running well above it, Havertown PA homes for sale generally price below comparable Main Line addresses across the county line.
Havertown School District
Haverford Township is served by the School District of Haverford Township, which operates Haverford High School along with a middle school and several elementary schools. You can review schools and attendance boundaries on the district’s official site. Attendance assignment depends on the home’s exact address and does not follow village lines.
What Buyers Should Know Right Now
This market does not wait. A 5-day median and under a month of supply mean the well-priced homes are gone in under three weeks. Inventory has not grown, so nothing has eased since last summer. Get pre-approved before you tour and know which village and which rail stop you want, because Brookline, Manoa, and Llanerch each trade differently. If you are searching Havertown PA homes for sale, look at what has actually closed on your street, since lot size and condition move price more than square footage does in this housing stock.
What Sellers Should Know Right Now
You are in a strong position and the numbers back it. Supply is under a month, and half of homes go under contract within 5 days, and asking prices are landing close to closing prices across the township. That last point matters: this is not a market where sellers are chasing the price down, so an accurately priced home should transact quickly. Recent comparable sales on your block, not a national online estimate, set the number.
