Welcome to 239 Lyceum Avenue, an exceptional opportunity to own one of just 5 luxury townhomes built into the iconic Manayunk Wall. Blending city convenience with a serene, elevated setting, this residence spans 3 thoughtfully designed levels and offers gated parking for 2 cars, 3 private outdoor spaces, and generously scaled bedrooms, including a full floor primary suite. Among the 5 homes, this property features one of the largest outdoor footprints. Tax abatement ends in 2029. A welcoming foyer with 9 foot ceilings leads into a freshly painted open concept main level designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The kitchen serves as the centerpiece, featuring abundant storage, high end appliances, and a large island ideal for casual dining and meal preparation. Just beyond, a secluded patio creates a peaceful extension of the living space. The second floor offers two spacious bedrooms with walk in closets, a full bath, and conveniently located laundry. The entire third level is dedicated to a light filled primary suite, where floor to ceiling windows and sliding doors open directly to a private balcony with sweeping views of the Manayunk Bridge and Cynwyd Heritage Trail. Enjoy morning coffee outdoors or unwind beneath the stars. The suite features a large walk in closet and a spa inspired bath with a soaking tub, glass enclosed shower, double vanity, and heated tile floors. Above, the expansive rooftop deck spans the length of the home and is equipped with lighting, electricity, and water, ideal for entertaining or container gardening. In 2025, the owner invested in a premium Duradek vinyl membrane roof system and new siding, offering superior long term waterproofing and supported by a 15 year manufacturer warranty. Ideally located, this home provides seamless access to Center City and the suburbs. It is a short walk to SEPTA Regional Rail, with nearby access to express bus routes 27 and 9 into Center City, and just minutes from I 76. With 2 gated parking spaces, convenience is always assured. Enjoy close proximity to Manayunk, Roxborough, and Chestnut Hill with a vibrant and growing dining scene, including local favorites such as Pizza Jawn, White Yak, Market at the Fareway, Weavers Way Co op, the Pretzel Park Farmers Market, and Dead King Bread. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate easy access to the Cynwyd Heritage Trail, Towpath, and Wissahickon Valley Park.
