This is a description of the property located at 232 N Santa Fe Ave in Tulsa, OK 74127, known as the Downing Mansion, built in 1918 as a grand house with Prairie Mission style architecture and a very distinctive facade that includes a third story with a tower-like appearance.
The property is a large three-story family home that includes a total of approximately 20 interior rooms spread over a living area of 5,631 sq ft, with a covered front terrace and a full basement.
The interior of the home includes 7 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, high ceilings, wood floors and various materials such as laminate and brick, as well as wood-framed windows and doors that give a feel and unique character to the spaces.
The structure also includes 3 fireplaces, an unfinished basement with various spaces, and a laundry room with washer and dryer hookups, supporting the functional needs of a large home.
The building includes a detached two-car garage and an outdoor space located on a plot of approximately 0.64 acres with mature trees, creating a spacious yard and room for further development.
The history of the property and its size make this home a rare opportunity for restoration, as it requires major repairs and is being sold “as-is”, meaning no repairs or concessions are offered by the seller.
Its value as a landmark home in the Owen Park neighborhood and the fact that it is built on eight original lots of land make this property unique in the local market.
The exterior of the building is characterized by brick walls and large windows, preserving the classic architectural style of the beginning of the last century.
There are unique specifics to this property such as the lack of currently installed heating and cooling systems, which is part of the restoration work that must be undertaken by the prospective buyer.
Overall, this property represents a restoration project with high potential, preserving values and architectural character, but requiring a significant investment of time and money to restore to a functional state.
