CHESTER TIMES
November 6, 1923
EXTENSIVE REALTY DEAL CONSUMMATED
Building Operation in Upper Darby Township to Cost About $600,000
Thomas T. Turbill of Philadelphia has
sold to Robert Kellough, a prominent real estate man of the upper end of
Delaware County, a large plot of ground in the Sixty-Ninth Street section. It contains about one hundred building lots,
each 30 x 100 feet and is situated at Long Lane, Marshall Road and Church Lane.
Mr. Kellough announced this morning
that he will begin immediate construction of two-story dwellings, of seven and
nine rooms, modernly equipped. The homes
will range in price from $10,000 and $18,000, which means that with the $80,000
cost of the lot, the entire operation will exceed $600,000.
This operation is one of the biggest
in recent months in Delaware County and situated at the Sixty-Ninth Street
Gardens, near the Elevated Terminal, which is in this county, that section
receives one of the biggest boosts in its sensational development.
A few years ago, Philadelphians went
out there to view the “truly rural county.
In rapid succession development after development with the result that
the Sixty-Ninth Street section is one of the modern real estate miracles of
this county and of any Philadelphia suburb.
Mr. Kellough is interested heavily in
Upper Darby Township holdings and this latest big operation will give him one
of the finest groups of homes in the country.
