About this home

Sold before processing. Built by Raymond Carter, this classic Nichols Hills residence occupies an exceptional 0.63-acre lot, offering a scale of grounds becoming increasingly difficult to secure in Nichols Hills. Carefully updated throughout many of its principal living spaces while preserving its timeless character, the 4,136-square-foot main residence offers four bedrooms, three full baths, one half bath, multiple living and dining areas and three fireplaces. While many of the home's most significant improvements have already been made, meaningful opportunity remains for its next owner to continue its evolution. The generously proportioned primary suite, with a fireplace, generous bath and private patio, offers exceptional scale and an outstanding opportunity to create a truly personalized retreat. At the heart of the property is an iconic Dee Johnson custom pool, finished in one-inch hand-laid cobalt blue tile and believed to be among the earliest of its kind in the metro. Surrounded by expansive brick terraces and mature trees, the grounds were originally designed by landscape architect Tommy Roberts and later enhanced by landscape architect John Fluitt. Overlooking the pool is a remarkable detached guest house designed as a glass-walled cabana. Measuring approximately 744 square feet, it features generous living and dining spaces, a kitchenette and powder bath. Walls of glass open directly to the pool, creating a remarkable setting for gatherings. This heated space was not included in the home's marketed 4,136 square feet, bringing the combined finished living area to nearly 4,900 square feet. A brick circular drive and extended side drive provide generous guest parking. Beyond the pool, the expansive grounds provide generous space for additional gardens, recreation and future possibilities. Classic architecture, exceptional grounds and an iconic pool define this Nichols Hills property. What a way to live.
