6019 Mccallum Street

Philadelphia, PA 19144

What a sweet home! 6019 McCallum Street is in the heart of the Tulpehocken Station Historic District on the National Register of Historic Properties. It is believed to be an ante-bellum home built before 1850 on what was the old 17th century Haines farm that stretched from Germantown Avenue to the Wissahickon Creek. Built as a worker's house then, it is clearly a home of the 21st century now. Beautifully maintained with upgraded systems, some new windows of excellent quality, good storm windows, gleaming wood floors, a nice kitchen with window overlooking gardens, it is a delight! 1st floor: Living room, separate dining room, eat-in kitchen gas cooking, stainless steel sink, plenty of cabinets, with exit to the rear yard. 2nd floor: 2 bedrooms each with its own good closet, one large, one small, a full bath with ceramic tile and shower over tub. Basement: Full, unfinished, for utilities, work area, washer and gas dryer. The basement is immaculate and well-lit. The rear garden is fenced, neat and tidy. 6019 McCallum is located on a street with several other similar homes. Not heavily traveled, it offers plenty of on-street parking. It is a short walk from the Tulpehocken commuter station on the Chestnut Hill West line, a few steps from several bus lines, and convenient both to Germantown Avenue shops, to iconic historic museums and monuments, and to the trails along the Wissahickon Creek.
