Bartlett Bank in Texas
The Bartlett National Bank in Bartlett, Texas.
  • Bartlett National Bank opened in 1904 before shuttering during the Great Depression.
  • Jennifer Tucker helped restore the bank and transform it into a cozy vacation rental. 
  • The three-bedroom home maintained many original features, including vault doors. 

Jennifer Tucker was exploring the downtown streets of Bartlett, a quaint town nestled in southeast Texas, when she stumbled upon an abandoned bank in 2019.

"It was dilapidated, and nobody had opened the front door in many, many years," Tucker, 49, told Business Insider. "It was in pretty bad shape."
