Property Description

This brick Tudor bungalow in Oklahoma City's historic Linwood Place has all the character you hope to find in an older home. Steep front gables and graceful brick arches give the exterior a storybook quality. The covered front porch adds a gracious place to slow down, visit with neighbors or linger over coffee. Inside, beautiful wood windows, hardwood floors, stained woodwork, period light fixtures and interior arches preserve so much of what makes the home distinctive. The living room features a vaulted tray ceiling and a fireplace surrounded by original Calco tile, a detail you simply can't recreate. Natural light pours through the wood windows and carries into the adjoining dining room. The renovated kitchen feels right at home with the architecture, featuring full-overlay cabinetry, honed marble countertops, unlacquered brass hardware, a farmhouse sink and built-in desk. Two bedrooms and a full bath are on the main floor. Upstairs, a beautifully converted attic serves as the third bedroom (included in overall square footage count), with its own powder bath and flexibility to also work as an office, playroom or bonus space. And then there's the backyard. Mature landscaping, garden beds, flagstone and gravel paths and a hammock spot make the garden every bit as appealing as the house. The large covered patio is made for dinners outside and evenings with friends, while the detached two-car garage adds the practicality everyone hopes to find. A new HVAC system and a fully paid-off solar system bring meaningful modern efficiency to this historic home, with seller reporting exceptionally low electric costs. Linwood Place is known for its tree-lined streets and historic architecture, all just minutes from the Plaza District, Paseo, Midtown and Downtown OKC with easy highway access. Original where it matters, updated where it counts and full of personality throughout. What a lovely way to live.
