An Oklahoma City mansion bursting with rainbow walls, animal-print furniture and unique textures is on the market for $1.5 million.
“A home like this usually has some browns, lights and darks mixed in to give it elegance,” said homeowner Isaac Sloan. “Mine looks like Elton John.”
Sloan, 50, bought the property in May 2022 after moving from California in search of a home with the perfect pool. A producer of independent films, director and longtime travel center builder, he said the house caught his eye on Instagram.
“I went and saw it, and I fell in love pretty quick and put in an offer," he said.
A week later, he owned 4808 Rose Rock Drive.
The 9,570-square-foot mansion has seven bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms. While the exterior is understated, the interior is a kaleidoscope of color, patterns, and personality.
“I’ve always liked bright colors,” Sloan said. “Even in school, I had blue pants, yellow pants, green pants. It followed me through my life, into my house, into the way I live.”
Elton John’s piano, rainbow feathers and good vibes
Inside, striped rainbow walls and blue kitchen cabinets reflect Sloan’s vibrant style. A red grand piano, which Sloan said Elton John owned and autographed, sits in the front room.
"It’s just a comfort to play on, and it makes the front room feel good with the music vibing all throughout the house,” he said. “That’s probably what I enjoy most.”
A metal sculpture of a heart with angel wings, cascading in feathers of various hues, hangs nearby.
“I love to look at that when I play,” he said. “It feels alive.”
For Sloan, the decor is more than aesthetic — it’s emotional.
“Color feels like nature to me,” he said. “Like how some people feel peace in the mountains or by a river, I feel that from color. It’s how I bring nature inside.”
He also enjoys spending time in the backyard, writing scripts, making s’mores in the fire pit or relaxing with his cats, George and Fred.
“One’s white. One’s black. They’re yin and yang,” he said.
The yard of the 1.91-acre property features a running path. Beyond the fence, a greenbelt with a river offers regular wildlife sightings, including mountain lions, wolves, bobcats and a flock of wild turkeys.
An injured opossum now visits Sloan’s back door, and he feeds it alongside his cats. The animals coexist peacefully, creating a quiet connection to nature.
‘My home is me’
To Sloan, the house is more than just walls and a roof.
“It feels like a living being,” he said. “I found the comfort of almost a companion.”
He said the home reflects who he is, and he was always searching for new elements that deepen that connection. But now, he’s preparing to move on.
“I’m to the point that I leave my house for responsibilities, but it’s become enjoyable to stay home and just do different things,” he said.
Moving on to his next chapter
Sloan, a member of the Navajo Nation, said he feels called to return to his roots and train as a traditional healer.
“I became a Hataałii, which is a medicine man,” he said. “To do my practice for my people, I need to go home. I love my [house]. I’d stay here for the rest of my life, but I also want to go back to the traditional grounds I’m from and be with my people.”
He plans to relocate to Flagstaff, Arizona, and practice traditional medicine on the reservation. He will also continue to make movies.
The home is waiting for the right person
While Sloan loves the house, he said its bold style isn’t for everyone.
“Everybody loves it,” he said. “They come and see it. They give great feedback. But I do believe the reason why it hasn’t sold yet is because it’s really colorful.”
Still, he’s willing to wait.
“When the right person comes, I’ll just feel that’s the person it’s meant to be for,” he said.
When he moves, Sloan plans to take only what matters most.
“I intend to bring my cats, my wife, and that’s it,” he said. “Everything else I intend to let go. As much as I’ve enjoyed [the piano], there’s a new chapter I’m looking forward to, and someone else might enjoy what I’ve enjoyed.”
