Rooftop skyline views. $3,250/year taxes. 2,300+ sq ft. Fully rehabbed. This isn't the one you pass on. 5338 Cedar Ave is a gut-renovated 3-bed, 2.5-bath townhome in Cedar Park/University City - and it delivers space, finishes, and features that simply don't exist at this price point in this neighborhood. The private rooftop deck sits above the entire block with panoramic Philadelphia skyline views. The primary suite has bay windows, dual closets, and a marble en-suite with ceiling rainfall shower. The open main floor flows from living and dining into a kitchen with quartz counters, Calacatta marble backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The finished basement adds an entire bonus level - office, gym, flex space, yours to decide. Front porch. Rear deck. Backyard. And taxes at just $3,250 a year. Minutes to Penn, CHOP, Clark Park, and the 52nd Street corridor. At this price, with these taxes, and this much space - you owe it to yourself to see it in person. That last line is the hook. It doesn't beg - it challenges. Buyers who read to the end will feel like not scheduling a showing is the mistake.
