A 1918 historic home with a backyard built for fun.

Once home to noted Oklahoma sculptor Jack Nortz, this beautifully preserved house blends original character with everything you need for a great group stay. Think soaring ceilings, original oak floors, brass and crystal fixtures, a fireplace, and a piano that’s hard to walk past without playing.

But the real surprise is outside. The fully fenced backyard features a lighted pickleball and basketball court—the first private pickleball court in Oklahoma. There is also a putting green, brick patio w/ fire pit, grill, and back deck. It’s the kind of backyard that makes staying home just as much fun as going out on the town.

Inside, there’s room for everyone, sleeping up to 12 with 2.5 bathrooms. The game room has a 65" smart TV, while three bedrooms and the living room also have smart TVs. You’ll find a fully equipped kitchen with Keurig coffee, dining room, living room, dedicated workspace, board games, books, piano, and a stackable washer/dryer.

Sleeping arrangements:
• Primary bedroom: King
• Bedroom 2: Queen
• Bedroom 3: Queen
• Bedroom 4/ upstairs game room: Daybed with trundle
• Bedroom 5: Daybed with trundle and toddler bed
• Living Room: Queen sofa sleeper
• Pack-n-play available upon request
