What This Apartment Offers
Property Id: 108820
Furnished, Bright, Spacious 2BR Bi-Level Apartment | Available 8/1/2026, Dedicated Parking
This elegant, furnished bi-level two-bedroom... apartment is located in the heart of downtown Swarthmore, just steps from campus and town amenities.
Proven student rental history:
The apartment has a long history of being rented by Swarthmore College students and is especially well suited to student living, based on its location, layout, and setting.
Location
• Located on Park Avenue in the center of town
• Approximately ½ block from the SEPTA Regional Rail station
• Easy walk to campus, library, cafés, shops, and farmers' market
• Central yet comfortable, with excellent light and privacy
Apartment Highlights
• Large, open-concept living and dining area with beautiful hardwood floors
• Bright, sun-filled space suitable for studying, hosting friends, or relaxing
• Recently renovated and exceptionally well maintained
• Distinct bi-level layout with living space on the main level and bedrooms upstairs
• Quality lighting fixtures throughout
• Approx. 1,200 sq ft — feels more like a townhouse than an apartment
Two Private Entrances & Outdoor Space
• Front entrance at street level on Park Avenue
• Rear entrance via stairs to a private outdoor patio
The patio is a great spot to enjoy summer evenings — including July 4th fireworks.
During the years the apartment was owner-occupied and rented to students, the unit, patio, and downtown Swarthmore have been very comfortable in the summer, with no noticeable mosquito issues.
Additional Perks
