Property Description

Stunning Spanish home in coveted Lincoln Terrace. The moment you enter through the mahogany front door with ornate brass hardware and beveled glass, you're stepping back into the Roaring '20s, a time of exquisite craftsmanship and decadent detail. Remarkably, so much of 1928 remains, right down to the servant-call annunciator and laundry chute. And while the character is old, a lot of the major mechanical work has already been done: HVAC system approx 2 years old, in the last few years: some plumbing updates, sewer line replaced, & gas line replaced. Fully renovated homes in the area are approx $240-260/ft. The living room is pure Spanish drama. An elaborate arcaded plaster frieze wraps the room like jewelry, joined by arched windows, marble window sills & a barley-twist column crowned with an ornate capital. Then there's the oversized original fireplace, layered with sculptural relief and period tile. Mahogany doors and trim, beveled glass, ornate brass hardware, plaster walls and mostly original light fixtures continue throughout the home. The original 1920s bathroom tile deserves its own moment, with different patterns and details from room to room. The huge formal dining room still wears its original crystal chandelier, and the breakfast room opens to an enormous kitchen with walls of cabinetry, marble surfaces and an arched alcove over the sink. It needs cosmetic updating, but there is serious space to work with. Upstairs, the primary has another original tiled fireplace plus a separate sitting/office/sewing room. There's also a basement, oversized 2-car garage and potential guest quarters beside the garage with a full bath and former kitchenette that needs renovation. This one has work ahead of it. But the expensive part to recreate, the architecture, artistry and soul of 1928, is already here. Lincoln Terrace is right in the heart, just blocks from the State Capitol and OU Health Sciences Center, highway access and some of OKC's best restaurants minutes away.
