An established community with historic housing

Wyncote is a quiet, woodsy neighborhood of the Cheltenham Township, home to a small population of just over 3,000. Locals are drawn to the community’s proximal location and landscaped parks but mostly to its antiquated homes. “Wyncote has a beautiful, old charm to it,” says Realtor Joanna Bellinger of Long & Foster Real Estate. Bellinger has sold homes across the region for over two decades. “It’s what people love about this area.”

Antiquated Victorians and colonials

Most homes in Wyncote were built in the late 19th to early 20th century. Buyers will find impressive masonry work through the town’s grand Victorians and colonial-style estates, along with old English Tudor homes. Many feature over 6,000 square feet of living space and are located on woodsy, half-acre lots. Buyers can expect to pay anywhere from $700,000 to $1 million for one of these large, historic homes. However, smaller historic homes cost between $400,000 to $600,000. Wyncote has several split-level homes from the mid-to-late 1900s that cost about $350,000 to $450,000. Several streets in Wyncote have sidewalks shaded by towering deciduous trees that also shade the community in orange, red and yellow hues in the fall.

Locals spend time at the Arboretum or play sports at Thomas Williams

Wyncote offers residents access to several outdoor respites. Curtis Arboretum features 45 acres of land, more than 50 varieties of trees and a historic estate built in the late 1800s. The arboretum is frequently used for weddings and other special events, but locals also visit to explore the rolling hills, view the turtle-filled ponds or let their dogs loose at the fenced-in dog park. Locals spend additional time outdoors at Robinson Park by relaxing on a bench by the pond or tending to their plots in the community garden. For more outdoor activity, residents head to Thomas Williams Park, which has a playground and several sports facilities for recreational use. The tennis courts are overlooked by the steps of the old Cedarbrook Middle School.
