About
Presidential Estates at 191 Presidential Boulevard is a ten-story, 526-unit condominium building in Lower Merion Township completed in 1961, situated at the Bala Cynwyd gateway to the Main Line adjacent to City Line Avenue and the I-76 corridor. The building was originally constructed as a rental apartment complex and subsequently converted to condominium ownership — a conversion model shared by most of the large Bala Cynwyd high-rises built in that era. The monthly condo fee is structured as an all-in package covering heat, central air, electricity, cable, pool access, tennis, 24-hour security, concierge, valet parking, and exterior maintenance, which means a buyer’s effective monthly cost is materially different from a market where utilities are paid separately.
