Welcome to 20 Fairview Road — a beautifully renovated and move-in ready 3 bedroom, 2 and a half bathroom home in one of Swarthmore's most convenient locations. Step through the front door and into a bright, open-concept main level complete with rich hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and plantation shutters that give the space a polished, finished feel throughout. The fully updated kitchen is the true heart of the home — featuring dark custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a dramatic stone tile accent wall, stainless steel appliances, and a professional-grade range with a stainless hood vent. The dining area flows naturally off the kitchen and is anchored by a stunning built-in cabinet and chandelier, with French doors leading directly out to the deck — making entertaining and everyday living effortless. Step outside to the expansive pergola-covered deck overlooking a fully fenced and private backyard — the perfect setting for relaxing or hosting. You can simply enjoy the outdoor space in every season. The lower level adds valuable bonus space with LVP flooring, built-in shelving, a double closet, and its own private entrance — ideal for a home office, gym, or media room. You will find three generously sized bedrooms with great natural light, including a spacious primary suite with recessed lighting and a walk-through dressing area. The updated bathroom features a dark vanity, white countertops, and modern fixtures. Attached garage and driveway parking round out this exceptional rental. All of this in an unbeatable Swarthmore location — walk to the train station, shops, restaurants, and parks, with direct SEPTA Regional Rail service to Center City Philadelphia. Convenient to major highways and the airport as well.
