3205 Northwest 19th Street

For the first time in more than twenty years, the exquisite Workman Estate could be yours. Truly one of one, it’s the stately crown jewel of beautiful, historic Linwood Place. The vision behind this charming urban estate began in 1910, within the brilliant mind of Solomon Layton, easily the premier architect of his time. He designed more than one hundred structures of every description, including the Skirvin Hotel, State Capitol and your magnificent new urbane manor house. With a combined living space of more than 5300 sf, this grand home and its charming cottage rest atop the gentle slope of a generous .69-acre corner lot, overlooking the wide, tree-lined boulevard. The ground floor’s southern and eastern exposures are encased in wide porches with room to entertain, dine and relax. The façade is symmetrical and stately with Italianate influences. Terra cotta-look metal roof tiles are durable; Juliet balconies add romance. Inside, a wide entry foyer greets us with splendid original floors and quarter-sawn paneling, magnificent balustrade and staircase. Regal, box beamed ceilings. Plenty of day-to-day living space on the first floor: large living, dining and study flow easily; the massive kitchen and breakfast room open to the back yard. A second staircase and two powders complete the first floor. Large utility basement. Upstairs, a wide landing is a nice extra living area, plus three spacious beds with en suite baths, large closets and loads of storage. The former sleeping porch is now a lovely sitting room. Grounds include a classic landscape, mature trees, serene swimming pool and a rare, true three-car garage. The spacious (more than 1,000 sf) cottage with private drive is an easy income generator with living, kitchen, bath and two beds. Just a hop and a skip to dining, shopping, schools, downtown and more. Those in the know will understand immediately: its location makes its superlative value possible. If Linwood isn’t on your radar yet it certainly should be!
