Description
This fully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo offers stunning eastern views, filling every room with soft morning light. Located in the prestigious Strath Haven Condominiums, a Gold Star Community recognized by the Community Associations Institute, this residence combines comfort, convenience, and an exceptional quality of life. Situated near Swarthmore’s charming town center, the property provides easy access to Swarthmore College, the Scott Arboretum, local shops, and the regional train station. Renovated in 2008, this condo features a thoughtfully designed open-concept layout. The original kitchen and dining room walls were removed, creating a spacious and functional kitchen that seamlessly flows into the living and dining areas—ideal for entertaining. At the heart of the kitchen is a large two-tiered island with bar-height seating, perfect for casual dining. Ample counter space accommodates multiple cooks, while abundant cabinetry provides generous storage. High-end finishes such as cherry wood cabinets, granite countertops, a tumbled marble backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and a neutral ceramic tile floor add warmth and elegance. The open and airy living room extends effortlessly to a generous private balcony, accessible through a sliding glass door. Large enough to accommodate a café table and chairs, the balcony is an inviting space to enjoy a morning coffee while watching the sunrise or to unwind with an afternoon drink. Adjacent to the living room, the dedicated dining area provides space for a formal meal. The spacious primary bedroom comfortably fits a full suite of furnishings and includes two large closets for ample storage. Its updated en suite bathroom features a convenient stall shower, offering both privacy and ease. The second bedroom is equally well-sized, with a large closet and direct access to the hall bathroom, which includes a bathtub/shower combination. A laundry closet with a stackable washer and dryer, along with additional storage space, adds to the home’s practicality. Strath Haven Condominiums offers an impressive range of amenities designed to enhance residents' lifestyles. Enjoy access to an outdoor swimming pool with changing rooms, a lending library, a hobby workshop, a meeting room, and a card and game room. The vibrant community also hosts book clubs, social gatherings, and a complimentary van service for shopping trips to nearby areas, including Booth’s Corner Market and H Mart. The monthly condo fee is one of the most comprehensive in the area, covering electricity, gas, water, sewer, heating, and air conditioning—providing a truly maintenance-free living experience. This beautifully updated condo, situated in a renowned community with outstanding amenities.
