Property Description
739 McClellan has been one family's home since 1987. It shows in the details. You come in through a vestibule. The reeded glass door is still there, which is not the norm anymore. Most of these are pulled out of Philadelphia rowhomes during renovations. Newer hardwood floors run through the living and dining rooms. The kitchen is where the house gets personal. The seller's father-in-law was a woodworker. He built these cabinets by hand for the house his daughter lived in. Solid oak, slatted doors, and a bread box built into the millwork. He also built the bathroom vanity, the medicine cabinet, and the wardrobe in the upstairs hall, which stays with the house. There is a G carved into one of the stair spindles for the family name. This level of customization and personal touch is hard to come by these days. Upstairs there are two bedrooms, two walk-in closets, and a third wide closet. Storage like that is not a given in a rowhome this size, and who does not want more of it. The bathroom is vintage tile in soft white and blush. The tub was built to fit the room, wider than standard and a little shorter front to back. The basement is dry, with laundry, a utility sink, a chest freezer, and room for everything else. The yard is private, with a newer PVC privacy fence on two sides and a block wall on the third. Half a block to BOK. Coffee at Rival Bros, Two Persons, or Grindcore House. Cannoli at Termini Brothers. Hoagies at Cosmi's. Fresh mozzarella and ricotta from Mancuso's. Craft cocktails and dinner at Tesiny or Supérette. Acme and CVS about a half mile away, past a run of smaller specialty shops along the way. Fifteen minutes on foot to the Broad Street Line at Tasker-Morris, with the 47, 45, 57, 29, and 79 buses all within walking distance. This house was lived in and looked after for almost forty years. Come see what that feels like, and what that life could look like for you.
