St. Davids blends Main Line historic charm with convenience

Sharing the name with the patron saint of Wales, St. Davids is a quiet, well-established suburb in the eastern section of Wayne in Delaware County among some of the most prestigious, sought-after communities along Philadelphia’s Main Line. “St. Davids is a nice combination of a quiet, charming neighborhood with easy access to everywhere you need,” says Tracy Pulos, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach.


St. Davids boasts a suburban lifestyle with the convenience of urban amenities just a hop, skip and a jump away. Residents have close access to St. Davids Station, a part of SEPTA’s regional railway system, for expedient traveling to Center City in Philadelphia. The neighborhood received its namesake from St. Davids Episcopal Church, a historic church built in the 18th century. The church has been at the center of the annual Country Fair for nearly 200 years. Neighbors also come together and perform live music on their porches for the South Wayne PorchFest, where the harmonious melodies of guitars and singing infuse the air.

St. Davids is home to the South Wayne Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991, filled with Colonial Revival and Shingle Style homes. These historic structures date back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries and represent the area’s suburban growth as a commuter railroad suburb. “Many homes are very diverse and offer much character,” says Pulos.
