Amazing opportunity at Strath Haven Condominium in Swarthmore! Three renovated and updated one-bedroom condominiums are being offered together, with nearly $100,000 in recent improvements. This unique offering creates an incredible amount of flexibility for an investor or an owner-occupant looking for a home with income potential. Live in one and rent the other two, or continue to use all three as investment properties. Also included is a private laundry/storage room for only the three units to use. Currently, one unit is set up as an Airbnb/short-term rental with existing reservations to be honored through May 2027, one is rented month-to-month, and one is vacant and ready for immediate occupancy, giving the next owner options from day one. These first-floor units also offer features you don’t typically find in condominium living. Unit 102 has its own exterior stairs with convenient access toward the parking area, while Unit 101 features a small deck and exterior stairs alongside the beautiful community garden. Surrounded by mature landscaping, flowers and a community herb garden, the setting feels wonderfully quiet and serene. Inside, the residences are bright, inviting and thoughtfully updated, with expansive glass doors and abundant natural light. Strath Haven offers a welcoming community atmosphere with a pool, library, laundry facilities, storage, beautifully maintained grounds and gathering spaces, all conveniently located near the heart of Swarthmore, shops, dining and the train. Whether you’re looking to add three properties to your portfolio at once or would love the idea of living in one while the other two generate income, this is a rare opportunity to own three updated residences together in one of Swarthmore’s most established condominium communities.
