What Makes This Distinct
Because Putnam Village is organized as a condominium—not a fee-simple townhome—buyers take title to airspace and a percentage interest in common elements rather than a discrete land parcel, which means the association’s financial health, reserve fund adequacy, and master insurance policy are material facts that belong in any due-diligence checklist alongside the physical inspection.

Worth Asking
Have you considered requesting the Putnam Village Condominium Association’s most recent reserve fund study and meeting minutes before making an offer—because in a condominium structure, a thinly funded reserve can translate directly into a special assessment that lands on the new owner?
Common Questions
What does the Putnam Village Condominium Association fee cover?
Public records and the association’s own website confirm the monthly condo fee covers exterior building maintenance (including roofs and siding), lawn care, snow removal, water, sewer, trash removal, use of the community swimming pool, tennis courts, and clubhouse, and management services. Buyers should request the current fee schedule, the most recent budget, and the reserve fund study directly from the association or its management company before closing, as coverage details and fee amounts change over time.

The school serves grades K–5 within the Wallingford-Swarthmore School District and ranks in the top 10% of Pennsylvania public elementary schools for math and reading proficiency. Note that the district warns attendance zone placements are not guaranteed due to capacity; buyers should confirm school assignment directly with the WSSD Registrar at 610-892-3470.

Items to Verify with Your Agent
A few specifics on this page are sourced from secondary aggregators or older filings. Confirm before relying:
- Avg Year Built — The 33-year appreciation index reports an average year built of 1958, which is inconsistent with all verifiable sources confirming Putnam Village was built 1977–1979. The 1958 figure likely reflects aggregated township or district data rather than this specific condominium community. This field is flagged as anomalous and was not propagated into page content.
- Builder — No single named developer or builder for Putnam Village could be verified from any named source. Field left null per protocol.
- Approx Homes — The figure of 124 comes from a 2016 real estate blog (wallingfordpahomes.com), not from the association directly or from county records. It is consistent with the legacy spreadsheet hint of approximately 124 units, but buyers should verify the current unit count with the association. Source tier set to ‘estimated’.
- Hoa Financial Health — Reserve fund balance, special assessment history, and master insurance policy details are not publicly available. Buyers should request these documents directly from the Putnam Village Condominium Association or its management company (AssetPro, per putnamvillage.com) as part of due diligence.
- Most Common Elementary — Wallingfordpahomes.com directly names Nether Providence Elementary as the school for Putnam Village residents. However, the WSSD registrar notes that zone placement is not guaranteed due to capacity. Boundary maps are available at wssd.org but the specific street-level assignment for Putnam Boulevard was not confirmed from a district-issued boundary map in this research pass.
- Interior Sqft Range Text — Square footage varies significantly by unit type and section within the Wallingford Valley complex. The 889–1,824 sq ft range from neighborhoods.com covers the Putnam Village sub-community; public records show some units at 2,212 sq ft (walk-out basement included). Buyers must verify square footage from the assessor or a measured floor plan.
