"Rock Manor" Ranch House

The 3,500 -square feet, one-story main residence was one of the first structures built in 1909 - 1910. In 2006 the home was remolded adding another 1,129 sf and an upstairs. It's walls were covered with Atoka sandstone, which was quarried on the ranch. Hence, the house was always known as "Rock Manor". The architecture is Prairie Style, and has the darker stone laid at the bottom of the elevation, becoming lighter as the exterior walls reach the roofline. The hipped roof is low-pitched and covered with asphalt shingles, interrupted by two front-facing dormers. There are 2 chimneys penetrating through the roof. The main chimney is on the center ridge and connects to the living room fireplace which has a limestone mantle. A porch spans the front facade (south elevation) and wraps around about one-third of the elevation. It is raised with a concrete floor and steps. The steps are flanked by short sandstone wing walls that are capped with concrete and decorated with concrete horse heads. Slightly tapered sandstone columns with concrete capitals support the porch roof. Four-inch diameter metal pipes connecting the columns, serve as the porch rail. The working kerosene light fixture above the front door is original to the house. The main entrance door is oversized and has a single pane of glass, with an overhead transom.

As you enter the home you are met with a beautiful staircase and banister that was made by the artist who did the ornamental iron work in the Big Cedar Lodge in Branson, Mo. There is a reading/sitting area off to the right followed by an executive office with built in shelving and etched glass that was done by a Tulsa artist and views to the front yard. Inside the house, the most notable feature is a large limestone fireplace in the living room. Sit down and enjoy the fire and watch your favorite show from a retractable tv. Wood floors sprawl throughout the first floor. Ceilings in all the rooms are 12 feet high and offer extensive crown molding. All interior doors have transoms and have solid brass hardware, most that are original to the house. There are two wooden built-in cabinets: a gun cabinet in the living room and a china cabinet in the dining room. The Formal Dining room is perfect for entertaining and allows for a table to seat up to 12 guests or family members. The large Kitchen offers extensive cabinetry, a center island and dining area off to the side with beautiful views to the west overlooking a pond. The tiles in the kitchen are hand-painted in Rainbow Gate by Jenny Lind. There is side access to a screened-in porch looking over the same pond. Around the corner from the kitchen is a walk-in pantry and a workout area and a saferoom outfitted as wine cellar.

Off the kitchen is the Master Bedroom with wood floors, tall windows, a large walk in closet and etched glass imported from Paris. There is a sitting area and fireplace and hidden tv for your personal enjoyment. You also have separate access to the side yard. The master bathroom is spacious with a shower and antique soaking tub with a chandelier above. The upstairs of the home offers 2 spacious bedrooms with great views of the ranch. There are two bathrooms and an open sitting area with built-in bookshelves and crown molding.

Secondary Buildings around the Main House

Three secondary buildings share the 1.1 acre yard of the Rock House: the Spring House and the Root Cellar are southwest of the main house, and the Smokehouse is northeast. The three secondary buildings each have Atoka sandstone walls, 2 feet thick, and sloped concrete roofs, 4 inches thick. The smoke house is 13 feet by 17 feet and was built to store fresh meat, as well as to smoke meat and fish. It is still usable but currently is used as a garden shed. Next to the Smokehouse is a wonderful outdoor entertaining area with a rock fireplace and pergola surrounded by a garden and landscaping.

Barn

The concrete barn was built in the early 1900's and is a rectangular structure with twin concrete silos at the north end. Stalls were originally made of metal pipe. The roof is front-gabled and covered with asphalt shingles. The barn is lined with double-hung windows. Drive-in doors are on the north, east and west sides of the barn, while cattle doors are on the south side. There are shed roofs along the outside east and west walls, supported by square wooden posts. The sheds were to provide shade and shelter from the weather.

Barn Apartment

Conveniently built above the barn is a 1,720 sf 2 bedroom apartment with an office or could be a 3rd bedroom. The living room offers a relaxing experience with a fireplace and dining area that is great for guests or hunters. There is a full kitchen with limestone countertops. Take the steps up to a viewing area upstairs that will not disappoint you. Wood floors are in the living area and carpet in the bedrooms. Step outside for the evening and enjoy the wood deck with views out the west.
