About Berwyn: Berwyn runs along Lancaster Avenue between Devon and the Chester County border, with the train station providing direct SEPTA access to Philadelphia. The neighborhood mixes older Main Line properties - stone twins, colonials, and a handful of larger estates - with smaller-lot homes that offer entry into the Tredyffrin-Easttown district at relatively lower price points. Route 30 commercial activity is close but doesn't intrude on most residential streets.
