About this property

Elegant, private getaway

Relax in this calm, stylish studio on a secluded lot within the suburbs. You'll appreciate the private porch with table for two as well as the stunning garden and in-ground pool in season. Queen bed plus a full Murphy bed that folds up into a large desk. Unit has washer/dryer, minifridge, microwave, and Nespresso. Dedicated off-street parking. Perfect for college visits, romantic get-aways, writing retreats, or family travel. Close to major highways but feels a world away. No pets or parties.

Your entrance is up the stairs on the left side of the garage.

Guest access
You are welcome to all of the loft and its attached porch, and the yard. Pool is available pending host approval and agreement to comply with all safety measures. Thank you!

Other things to note
There is absolutely no smoking of any kind permitted in the unit or on the property. Guests who smoke in the room will be assessed a fee for the additional cleaning this requires.

About the host

Hosted by Rebecca Davis

Host profile image
Welcome to 10 Ogden! I'm a history professor, gardener, and mom of two kids who live with me half time. It's been a pleasure to update this space as a cozy get-away. I hope you'll love it here as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

I've lived in Swarthmore for over 15 years and chose it as a wonderful place to raise my family (and commute to work!). We are a 15 minute walk to the Septa train station and the sweet "downtown" area, a 10 minute drive to Media (which has great restaurants), and just 25 minutes from Philadelphia. (15 min to airport)

What makes this property unique

The setting! Explore the yard and gardens, and in season, enjoy the outdoor pool! This property was a dream opportunity for us, and we're delighted to share it with our guests.
