Kalas estate on the market

POSTED: Monday, July 6, 2009, 2:04 PM

Michael Klein, Philly.com

The Christine Clark Real Estate Team of Long & Foster is selling the house of the late Harry Kalas, which sits in a cul-de-sac bordering Ridley Creek State Park in Upper Providence Township, Delaware County.

Asking price is $625,000.

"It's not anything too pretentious," Clark told me. Though the furnishings will be taken, a bit of Harry the K will remain: The bar in the basement, known as the Kalas Korner, contains stained glass with baseball etchings.

It has two floors of living space, including two full kitchens. The lower floor offers level entries and separate living quarters..

Eileen Kalas, his widow, plans to leave the area.

The Phillies organization should buy it and make it a museum.

adult children are the mid 20 and 30somethings that are still living at home with mommy and daddy.

I hope that whoever buys the house keeps Kalas Korner intact.
