This quant country home belongs to Ms. Lyn Scott, who grew up in Lakeland. She believes the house to have been built in 1920. The home is surrounded by the beautifully landscaped yard. The backyard includes a pond and a mother-in-law cottage. Since buying the home 13 years ago, Ms. Scott has restored the ceilings, remodeled the patio into an enclosed sun room, redesigned the mother-in-law cottage, added a bathroom, refinished the floors, erected a new fence, and extended the kitchen to include a beautiful bar for dining. The home has a total of 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Ms. Scott has 2 daughters, 1 grandson, and 2 cats and is a Kindergarten teacher at Cleveland Court. She plans to continue to remodel her country home.
