Description

Exceptional Value in Swarthmore – Spacious 2-Bedroom, 2-Bath Condo. Don’t miss this excellent opportunity to own a well-maintained two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo in the desirable Strath Haven community—offered at an outstanding price! Ideally located, this condo provides easy access to downtown Swarthmore, the regional rail station, Swarthmore College, the public library, Scott Arboretum, and the scenic Crum Woods walking trails. Since 2014, the Strath Haven Condominium Association has invested over $10 million in major capital improvements, significantly enhancing the building and its beautifully landscaped grounds. In recognition of its strong financial management and sound governance, SHCA has been awarded the prestigious Gold Star Community designation by the Community Associations Institute. This particular unit features a sought-after northwest orientation, offering consistent, soft natural light throughout the day—highly favored by artists and creatives. Step out onto the spacious balcony, the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or relax in the evening. The kitchen includes new tile flooring and a stylish backsplash, while the original mid-century wood cabinets and oven remain in excellent condition—offering both charm and potential for a period renovation. The large primary bedroom features an en suite bathroom with a stall shower and ample closet space. The second bedroom is also generously sized and includes a large closet and access to the second full bathroom with a shower/tub combination—ideal for guests. Additional conveniences include an in-unit laundry closet with a stackable washer and dryer. The monthly condo fee includes nearly everything: electricity, gas, water, sewer, heating, air conditioning, building and grounds maintenance, outdoor pool access, library, meeting and hobby rooms, and even a community van for local shopping. The only separate expense is cable/internet. This is an exceptional value in a prime location—schedule your showing today! (Interior photos to be posted on Tuesday, June 17.)
