About Us
Olympia is an “over age 55” adult
community near the center of Strongsville, Ohio. Conveniently located northwest of the
intersections of Route 42 (Pearl Rd.) and Route 82 (Royalton Rd.), Olympia is
only minutes away from shopping, fine dining, award-winning golf courses, and
the Cleveland Metroparks. A 15,000
square foot clubhouse is the focal point of the development. Clubhouse amenities include a heated indoor
pool and sauna, well-equipped fitness center, locker rooms, library,
multi-purpose room, kitchen, dining room and card/game room. Outdoor amenities include a tree-lined, asphalt-paved
walking path, and a bocce ball court.
These facilities are available to all homeowners, their families and
guests (with restrictions as to time of day).
As an Olympia homeowner, each owner also owns a share of all the common
facilities. For more detailed
information about Olympia, its administration, facilities, rules and regulations,
please refer to other sections of this website.
Built by Bob Schmitt Homes and fully
developed, Olympia was designed for mature adults who desire to stay active
physically, mentally, and socially.
There are a total of 199 homes, which include 184 detached cluster homes
and 15 condominium-style homes. It is a
self-contained community, with no thru streets.
The Olympia subdivision operates as housing for older persons, as
authorized by the U.S. Fair Housing Act of 1988. This means at least 80% of the occupied homes
must have at least one occupant age 55 or older, and no child under the age of
18 may live in the subdivision.
All 199 homes are a part of the
Olympia Homeowners Association (known as OHA).
All Olympia residents are automatically members of the OHA and must
abide by all rules and regulations.
These rules and regulations have been designed to maintain the
aesthetics of Olympia as well as to provide harmony in the use of all common
properties. In addition to membership in
the OHA, residents of the 15 condominium homes are also members of the Athena Condominium
Association (known as Athena). As
members of Athena, those residing in the 15 condominiums must also abide by
additional fees, rules and regulations specific to owners of condominium homes.
The Olympia Homeowners Association
(OHA) is entirely self-managed – there is no paid position of Association
Manager. Five directors are elected from
and by the OHA membership. These OHA Directors,
with help from several committees, are responsible for the operations of the
OHA. The directors, committee chairs and
members serve on a volunteer basis and all residents are encouraged to
volunteer in an area of expertise and/or interest to them. This enables the OHA to keeps the maintenance
fees very reasonable. To pay the
operating expenses of the OHA, homeowners pay maintenance fees to cover the
costs of operation.
The OHA is responsible for all
clubhouse maintenance, landscape and general maintenance of all common property,
and front yard maintenance of all homes (primarily lawn cutting, weed
control, pruning of shrubs), as well as snow removal from streets and
driveways. Tree and shrub replacement
and all courtyard maintenance is the homeowner’s responsibility, and at their
own expense.
