Lovely home in a convenient location!
I was drawn to this home because I love all things vintage, and because it’s located near the fairgrounds where my family had an event to attend. The house is beautiful and well maintained, and has everything you need from kitchen supplies to extra toiletries in the bathroom. The neighborhood feels safe and quiet. Monte was very communicative and helpful; he even gave me tips for driving around the area. If you enjoy wine, the hosts provide a complimentary bottle. There is a Walmart Neighborhood Market nearby, and it’s just a short drive to the Penn Square mall. My family greatly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

About the host

Hosted by Monte King

Host profile image
We lived in this home the first 2 years of marriage and even though our lives dictated we move away. We kept the house as a rental since 1982. All four of our grown children have rented it as young adults. We've had long term renters, most good and some bad. We chose not to renew the last lease agreement and reclaimed our home for other people and travelers to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

A historic and eclectic area with friendly neighbors in what historians say is Oklahoma City's first middle class neighborhood.
A vintage home in a preserved historic neighborhood built for JC Penneys good friend, Somerville Gilchrist. His first store manager in Oklahoma City. The home is largely preserved as built. Nine foot ceilings and original untouched maple woodwork. Original tile fireplace, hardwood floors and an entry room (for Rose Gilchrists baby grand piano) instead of an open front porch. As soon as you enter you will immediately feel at home.

What makes this property unique

Even if you tried I don't think one could find a more centrally located property in Oklahoma City.
