Overview
Iconic Wilsonian Building on Lake Morton
The iconic Wilsonian Building, constructed in 1922 and designed by B.C. Bonfoey, is located on Lake Morton in downtown Lakeland. The property is situated in the center of Lakeland’s vibrant downtown area, along the city’s heavily traveled walking and recreational areas. Zoned O-1, City of Lakeland, the building is divided into two wings, each containing 8 apartments with 4 units per floor. The unit mix includes eight studios with a den and one bathroom, and eight one-bedroom units with a den and one bathroom. Stairways are located on the east and west sides of the building. Cosmetic and structural upgrades would benefit the building. The sale includes the adjacent property at 120 E. Palmetto St, a former two-story single-family home converted into a duplex, featuring two 2-bedroom, 1-bath units. The duplex is currently vacant. The property is within walking distance of downtown and Lake Hollingsworth. The Wilsonian has jalousie windows, original wood floors, some Murphy beds, and original layouts in each unit. Ample parking is available in the rear of the building, with carports in place. A revamp of the parking space would provide more efficiency. Only 6 tenants are on current leases, expiring between January 2026 and April 2026; all other tenants are on month-to-month leases. Each unit has its own electric meter and central HVAC. Water, sewer, and electric are provided by the City of Lakeland. The owner pays for water and sewer on one bill. 120 E Palmetto currently uses a septic tank. Lake Morton hosts the annual Mayfaire by the Lake Arts Fair every Mother's Day weekend.
