(based on 1 user rating) EDITOR REVIEW: EAST FORT LAUDERDALE. Built in 1920, this breathtaking estate is on the National Register for Historic Sites and is a remarkable tribute to a bygone era. It is the former home of artists, Frederic and Evelyn Bartlett. The family bequeathed the property to the Florida Trust in 1983. The plantation style home reflects the Bartlett's penchant for European art and architecture. The estate overlooks a lagoon and comprises 35 acres of lush botanical beauty, wetlands, a fruit grove, lily pond, boathouse, shell museum and a theater surrounded by a moat. There is a walking trail and swans, monkeys and other wildlife live on the property. Tours are available Wednesday through Sunday. Workshops and lectures are available to the public. The site is available for special events. The gift shop features numerous unique items. Location Map 900 N Birch Rd, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33304 Larger Interactive Map » Show Nearby Businesses » |
