What neighbors say about living in Radnor-Wintson.

Neighbor

“I really like the ‘small town’ feel when you can know your neighbors, say ‘hi!’ when they walk up the street, when you can post on a ‘list’ and get help or advice. We have all sorts of people in our small town and all seem to be pretty much welcomed and accepted.”

Neighbor

“I have lived here for almost 36 years and…I am so glad we made the decision those many years ago to become homeowners and raise our family here. This is a good place!”

Neighbor

“My favorite thing about our neighborhood is our big front porches. I like to show off the cute houses and gardens in our neighborhood to guests. I would miss most the neighborliness, creativity and energy in this neighborhood.”

Neighbor

“It is the feeling of living in a village where my parents moved, I grew up, and then have raised my own child.”

Caring neighbors.

  • A place for a growing family.

    We moved to Radnor Winston in 1984 into a tiny house with just one kid. With three kids we moved to a larger home the other side of the neighborhood. Eventually we bought yet another still in the neighborhood! We love Radnor Winston because you can leave an emergency key with a neighbor. When you go away for the weekend you know you can call on someone to feed your cat. Someone will have that extra tall ladder you need for just one project. The local schools are great and car pools plentiful. The nearby campuses are perfect for the early morning dog walk and for sledding. The list serve can almost always provide the answer to just about any question or need.

  • Delightful sounds of Radnor-Wintson

    In the winter, we help plough the sidewalks and the streets (!), in the summer we make sure our older members' have help with their lawns and gardens. Our little town also seems to be constantly getting "spruced up". People are planting, rebuilding, repairing, repaving, roofing, reroofing...and in the next few months, we will be showing our concern for the environment (and our pocketboods!) by getting solar panels! Sometimes sitting on the front porch early in the morning, I am delighted by all the "neighborhood sounds": dogs barking, birds chirping, the gentle sound of the wind chimes, the hum of cars coming up the street, pausing and then moving out and on to York Rd., the kids coming up to the top of Whiteford to get a good start on their terrorizing skate board trip down to the bottom of the hill, the mail man, the UPS/FedEx person. I like feeling like I'm in my own small world but that I can walk up to CVS or MacDonald's and get all the basics of comfort and comfort food when I'm in a hurry. I like knowing that I am about a 5 minute walk away from a University library and a beautiful campus that offers events open to us...often for free!
