About This Home

257 Lyceum Ave

Welcome to 257 Lyceum Avenue, a meticulously designed new construction home by premier local builder Main Street Development and award winning architect Morrissey Design. This 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom luxury residence seamlessly blends modern elegance with everyday convenience, all within walking distance of Manayunk’s vibrant Main Street. Thoughtfully designed with standout features, this home boasts heated sidewalks and driveway, garage parking with an EV outlet, and large fenced backyard. Inside, enjoy 7-zone heating and cooling for personalized comfort, along with heated floors in all bathrooms, custom window treatments throughout, and a central vacuum system. Upon entry, you’ll find a one-car garage with EV outlet, extra room for storage, and a welcoming foyer. Ascend to the expansive main living level, where soaring ceilings and a dramatic wall of glass flood the space with natural light. A sleek gas fireplace adds warmth and sophistication, while a convenient powder room and coat closet enhance functionality. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, equipped with matte white GE Café appliances, including a 36” French door refrigerator, 30” double oven with hood, microwave drawer, and double-drawer dishwasher. Custom modern cabinetry offers ample storage with a large pull-out pantry, complemented by white quartz countertops and a stylish herringbone tile backsplash. The second level features two generously sized guest suites. The front bedroom is bathed in natural light with a wall of windows, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath featuring heated flooring, a walk-in shower with a frameless glass door, and a sleek linear drain. The rear guest suite offers its own en-suite bath with a soaking tub and heated floors for added comfort. A dedicated laundry area on this floor includes a stacked washer/dryer, custom cabinetry, and counter space for added convenience. The top floor is dedicated to the ultimate primary suite retreat, designed to evoke a luxury hotel experience. The expansive bedroom opens to a step-out deck with 12x12 pedestal tiles, perfect for enjoying morning coffee or evening relaxation. A massive walk-in closet provides abundant storage, while the spa-like en-suite bath showcases a dual-head oversized step-in shower, custom double vanity, LED-lit mirror, and heated floors for the ultimate indulgence. A wet bar with a GE Café beverage center adds a touch of convenience before stepping outside through French glass doors to a large fenced-in backyard—a rare find in the city, perfect for entertaining, pets, or simply unwinding in your private outdoor oasis. Located with easy access to Center City, major highways, and public transportation, this home offers convenience without compromise. Plus, take advantage of the FULL 10-year tax abatement, an increasingly rare benefit that makes this home an even more attractive investment.
