Bartlett Real Estate Office, Historical office building in Beverly Shores, United States.
The Bartlett Real Estate Office is an administrative building in Beverly Shores showing Spanish Colonial architectural elements and now serving as the town hall. The structure features tan brick walls, a two-story tower with terra-cotta tiles, green wood trim, and decorative iron railings throughout.
The building was constructed in 1927 as a sales office for the newly planned Beverly Shores residential development and was among the first structures built there. It was later repurposed as the town's administrative center and has served this function for many decades.
The building shows how developers in the 1920s attracted buyers by placing a sales office right at the development site itself. Visitors can see how the architecture served as advertising for the homes being built around Beverly Shores.
The building sits in the center of Beverly Shores and is accessible to visitors during town administration hours. Since it functions as town hall, you can stop by during the day to view the exterior or step inside to see the original details when no meetings are in session.
The interior preserves original 1920s details including pressed metal ceilings and a Murphy bed from when a caretaker lived in the rear section. These features reflect how early sales offices often included living space for staff to attend to potential buyers throughout the day and evening.
