Aren’t Tudor revival bungalows just the best, with their wide, shady porches, intricate masonry and arched doorways? This one, lovingly updated in Linwood Place, is extra special. The home faces the 19th Street boulevard, and its spacious covered porch works as a versatile extra living space. You’ll most certainly want to begin and end the day there. Its bones have been kept clean and classic – a ready canvas for your own unique style. With so much natural light, white walls, original floors in most and classic updates in the kitchen and bath, you could easily transform this dream bungalow into a chic old-English or French country cottage, a sleek, cool mid-mod oasis or a cozy, casual mix of a little of this and a dab of that. Its current owner has spent eleven years turning it into an art-filled, vintage lover’s oasis, while smartly embracing a neutral colorway where it counts. There’s a barrel ceiling in the living room. Its original woodwork and California art tile fireplace surround are exquisite. The large center tile features a covered wagon scene done in bas relief, likely from Muresque Tiles of Oakland, an artisan company of the era. In the dining room, the barrel ceiling, painted a soft sherbet pink, brings to mind an Oklahoma summer sunrise. Smart renovation in the kitchen includes white subway tile backsplash, granite countertops and a combination of open and traditional shelving. A small, brushed nickel bar has room for two petite stools. A wide central hall contains a built-in telephone desk and alcove; another alcove is in the living room. Both bedrooms are spacious enough for king beds. The west bed opens onto a deck with room for a bistro set or small sectional. There’s a fireplace, a second, stone paved deck area, a koi pond, beds of glorious mature irises and room to flex your own green thumb. Linwood Place, a historic enclave, is moments from downtown, or anyplace you need to be. Fair warning: it’ll be pretty hard to leave that front porch!
