Tuscan Lodge

One-of-a-kind rare Vintage Landmark building in the heart of Bartow, Florida, which is Polk County’s Government seat.

Built in 1927, as a special purpose use for the Tuscan Mason Lodge, this building is unique in many ways. It seats on the corner of S. Florida Avenue and East Parker Street, one block North of E. Stanford. Built of brick construction, this 3-story 12,000 SF building offers many extras: the 1st floor has a wide entrance with an office up front, Ladies and Men’s lounges with RR and corridor leading to the large banquet hall with adjoining commercial grade kitchen (gas, Ansul hood, 3-compartment sink and more). Wide stairwells lead to the 2nd floor which is largely open, being the main meeting hall (4,000 SF); high ceilings with special coffered design with faux light, several rooms and 2 side stairwells leading to the 3rd floor which offers additional offices and side seating gallery running the entire length of the 2nd floor meeting hall. An original 3rd spiral stairwell from the 3rd floor leads down to the kitchen. Original wood floor, original tiles in RR, some original window panes and original door hardware custom made for the Tuscan Mason Lodge. Upgrade/renovation will be needed to bring the building to current ADA code. This building would be ideal for repurposing into a number of potential uses, from residential lofts, event venue, government building, offices and others. Sale/purchase price is $800,000.00.
