Tredyffrin's roots are Revolutionary, but its present is education
Tredyffrin is a testament to Pennsylvania's past and present. The township was settled by Welsh Quakers in 1682, and Washington’s Continental Army camped here during the Revolutionary War. Parks and taverns uphold the area’s history, while new construction, transit access and nearby shopping malls offer modern convenience for Tredyffrin’s almost 32,000 residents. The community is part of Philadelphia 's Main Line region, an area sought out for its commute and highly rated schools. Tredyffrin’s school district attracts homebuyers to the township, versus other nearby communities like King Of Prussia. The township surrounds the community of Chesterbrook, where there are additional restaurants and community events. Residents live in small subdivisions, where they can get to know their neighbors. “There’s a sense of community. You have neighborhood groups that socialize together and have parties,” says Realtor Shawn Corr with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox and Roach.
SEPTA stops at Gulph Mills, providing easy travel for those in Tredyffrin.
Once a Revolutionary War encampment, Tredyffrin now thrives as a well-connected suburb.

A-plus-rated schools with plenty of course options
Students attend the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District. All high school students in the township head to Conestoga Senior High School. “It’s very highly rated in the state and the country,” Corr says. “They offer a tremendous selection of courses at every level — AP, honors, accelerated.” All schools and the district as a whole receive A-plus ratings from Niche.
Conestoga Senior High is the part of the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District.
Hillside Elementary School is recognizable by its iconic mid-century architecture.

Single-family homes and condo communities across Tredyffrin
Tredyffrin offers a mix of housing options. Condos and townhomes in communities like Old Forge Crossing and Arbordeau typically range from $250,000 to $450,000. Single-family homes line curving streets, surrounded by numerous older trees that tower over the rooftops. Many lawns are sloped, so homes sit atop a small hill. Attached garages are standard, though many are tucked to the sides of homes, hidden from the road. Split levels and new townhomes range from $650,000 to $900,000. Colonial Revivals and New Traditionals cost between $1 million and $2 million. The township receives a 2 out of 10 Cap Index Crime Score, which is lower than the national average of 4.
Tredyffrin offers condos and townhomes in a wide range of prices.
Tredyffrin continues to grow while honoring its Revolutionary War past.

Valley Forge National Historical Park and community green spaces
Valley Forge National Historical Park is just north of the township, known as the site where General George Washington camped with the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War. Visitors can explore restored buildings, like Washington’s Headquarters, and the National Memorial Arch. The visitor’s center also has exhibits and artifacts about the war and encampment. Corr says that plenty of locals come here for the 30 miles of trails. Wilson Farm Park is in Chesterbrook but is a major community green space for the township. The 90 acres include a playground, putting green, disc golf course, walking paths and fields. Teegarden Park includes tennis and pickleball courts. St. Davids Golf Club originally opened in 1897. Today, its 18-hole course is private. Jerkins Arboretum and Gardens is free to the public, featuring several trails through the grounds.
Washington Memorial Chapel was built in 1903 as a tribute to George Washington.
A visit to Valley Forge National Park includes a walk through historic dwellings.

Local Tredyffrin restaurants and King of Prussia's mall
Locals stop in Nudy’s Café for brunch. The big windows let in plenty of natural light, and the menu includes a mix of eggs, pancakes and sandwiches. NECTOR offers a more upscale dining experience with a modern dining room and a menu specializing in Asian-French fusion cuisine. In Chesterbrook, the Black Powder Tavern has been in operation since 1746. Paintings of the Founding Fathers and Revolutionary battles hang on the walls. It serves American fare and seafood. Tredyffrin is home to Trader Joe’s and Hung Vuong Food Market, a specialty Asian grocery store. King of Prussia is also a big shopping and grocery hub. Its mall includes major retailers. Wegmans, Walmart and Costco are just outside of the mall, about 3 miles away from Tredyffrin.
Weekend brunch at Nudy’s Café is a local favorite in Tredyffrin.
Tredyffrin residents are just a few minutes from the King of Prussia's mall.

Seasonal events hosted at Wilson Farm Park
Wilson Farm Park hosts the township’s annual and seasonal events. On Thursday evenings, people gather with picnic blankets and chairs around the park’s amphitheater for the Summer Concert Series. The Fourth of July Celebration includes live music, food trucks and fireworks at dusk. Community Day is in October, where kids can play on blow-up obstacle courses. People can take helicopter and horseback rides.
Commuting along the Pennsylvania Turnpike or on SEPTA trains
When getting around Tredyffrin and the Chester County area, people can drive or hop on one of the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transit Authority (SEPTA) buses along Swedesford Road and Lancaster Avenue. Vanguard has a campus in the township, operating as a major employer for the area. Healthcare is also a big industry here. Paoli Hospital is 5 miles away, while the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia Middleman Family Pavilion is 3 miles away. U.S. Route 202 and Interstate 76, also called the Pennsylvania Turnpike, run through the township. The turnpike connects commuters with downtown Philadelphia, about 22 miles away. “There’s the train that goes right into the city, and it’s called the Main Line,” Corr says. “That’s why this area is called the Main Line.” The Daylesford station is along Lancaster Avenue. Philadelphia International Airport is about 26 miles from Tredyffrin.
