About
Athertyn at Haverford Reserve is a federally age-restricted (55+) condominium community developed by Pohlig Builders beginning in 2009, comprising six four-story buildings with a total of 198 units at build-out on Parkview Drive in Haverford Township, Delaware County. The buildings use English Tudor Revival architecture with steel and concrete construction—a deliberate reference to the historic Main Line estates that once occupied the corridor—and were designed by Minno & Wasko Architects. The community received the National Association of Home Builders Gold Award for Best 50+ Lifestyle Housing and sits within the 209-acre Haverford Reserve, adjacent to 120 acres of preserved woodlands and the Haverford Township Recreation Center, less than two miles from the Haverford SEPTA Regional Rail station.

What Makes This Distinct
Because Athertyn is structured as a condominium—not a fee-simple HOA subdivision—the Athertyn Condominium Association is responsible for exterior building maintenance, lawn care, snow removal, pool operations, trash, water, sewer, insurance on common elements, and professional management, meaning monthly condo fees are a material ongoing ownership cost that buyers must underwrite in addition to the purchase price.

Worth Asking
Have you considered that the condominium association fee at Athertyn covers exterior building maintenance, water, sewer, insurance on common elements, and management—costs that in a fee-simple home fall entirely on the owner—and asked what the current monthly fee is and what the association’s reserve fund balance looks like before making an offer?
Common Questions
Who built Athertyn and when was construction completed?
Pohlig Builders broke ground in 2009 with plans for six four-story condominium buildings totaling 198 units. Construction was phased across multiple buildings over roughly a decade, with Adams Bickel serving as the general contractor and each building requiring a 14-to-24-month construction schedule. The community has since sold out its new-construction inventory; resale units are the only avenue for buyers today.
What does the Athertyn Condominium Association cover, and what should buyers ask about fees?
Public records confirm the Athertyn Condominium Association’s fee structure covers the pool, common area maintenance, exterior building maintenance, lawn maintenance, snow removal, trash, water, sewer, building insurance, all ground fees, and professional management. The specific monthly dollar amount is not publicly verified and changes over time; buyers should request the current fee schedule, the most recent budget, and the reserve fund study before submitting an offer. A condominium’s reserve fund adequacy is a key fiduciary data point that affects both livability and future resale.
Is Athertyn subject to any age restrictions, and how does that affect resale?
Yes. Athertyn is a federally qualified 55+ community under the Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA), which requires that at least 80% of occupied units have at least one resident age 55 or older. This restricts the buyer pool to age-qualified purchasers, which is a structural factor every seller’s agent must disclose and every buyer’s agent must evaluate. Buyers under 55 are generally ineligible to purchase, though specific occupancy rules should be confirmed with the condominium association and a real estate attorney.
Items to Verify with Your Agent
A few specifics on this page are sourced from secondary aggregators or older filings. Confirm before relying:
- Hoa Monthly Fee — The specific monthly condominium association fee amount is not publicly verified. Public records-derived HOA status shows ‘None found,’ but a named Athertyn Condominium Association clearly exists and is documented across multiple sources. Buyers must request the current fee schedule directly from the association or seller’s agent.
- Most Common Elementary — Athertyn is a 55+ age-restricted community; school-age children are not the primary resident demographic. The Haverford Township School District boundary tool (haverford.k12.pa.us) identifies elementary assignment by address, but this is not a material disclosure for the Athertyn buyer profile. Field left null by design.
- Approx Homes — 55places.com and rgsassociates.com both cite 198 total units (6 buildings × 33 units). Adams Bickel references ‘five buildings,’ which may reflect they constructed five of the six or that one building was handled differently. The 198-unit figure is treated as verified but the minor discrepancy with Adams Bickel is noted.
- Reserve Fund Status — No public record of reserve fund adequacy or most recent reserve study was found. For a condominium of this type and age, reserve fund health is a material buyer disclosure item.
School District
Athertyn is served by the Haverford Township School District. Buyers should verify current school assignments directly with the district.
