3301 Norcrest Dr, Oklahoma City, OK 73121

Do you wander through life wearing rose-colored glasses? This cool cat of a spacious home totally gets it. Imagine yourself coming home to this languid, low-slung, wide-eaved, Mid-Mod slice of heaven wrapped in blush-colored brick on an oversized lot on Forest Park’s Norcrest Drive. IYKYK. Ordinarily, it’s well and truly impossible because homes here almost always stay in the family, and it’s easy to see why. The neighborhood is a hidden gem. From the street, wide windows sparkle and pretty paned double front doors beckon breezily from behind a built-in brick planter. Saunter into the foyer. Underfoot, neutral shell-pink and tan and pink original terrazzo tile soon gives way to warm lux vinyl plank wood-look floors. Overhead, a perfect vintage pendant light glows soft pink. Living and dining flow together, ready for groovy gatherings or mellow moments. Clean white cabinetry looks fresh in the updated kitchen with quartz countertops and new cooktop, sink, faucet and a trio of well-proportioned black and gold fixtures linking the two spaces. The primary living space is anchored on one wall by a wide fireplace whose surround and hearth are crafted in the same soft pink brick as the exterior. Along the length of the rooms are two dazzling banks of picture windows. The primary bedroom suite’s bath has been fully reimagined and the vanity – cleverly created from a cool 1960s sewing table – is a slick little showstopper. This room’s walls are pinky-beige, a soft, candle-lit shade that flatters. Two more beds. Two more renovated baths. Plenty of privacy. Relax on the covered back porch surrounded by glorious nature: late winter brings with it a flock of Rio Grande turkeys, who lead their babies through the neighborhood until the weather warms. In sunny spring, turtles come to snack on sweet mulberries that fall from the large tree out back. Its hilltop perch means Downtown lights twinkle in the distance. Oh, and the convenience. Minutes from everything, yet a world away.
