Lane-Waters House, 1870s, Bulloch County

Decrepit Plantation Plain house with a porch, surrounded by overgrown vegetation and trees under a clear blue sky.

This is located near the Harville House. Marty Waters writes: “The Jim Waters Family lived in this house from 1930 until my last uncle died in 2001. Our family has farmed this land since the mid-1920s. It is our understanding that the house was built in the 1870s by the Lane family. In the early 1900s the area was known as Enal* (Lane spelled backward). The home is owned by residents in Florida.”

*-There was a post office at Enal from 1882-1906.

Plantation Plain house with a brick chimney, partially surrounded by a large, barren tree and overgrown vegetation.

    I love the style of this old home. I can’t understand why some of the family does not repair the damage and live there. You know each home has a heart beat and the way to kill it is for no-one to live in it. Funny how everything and everyone needs someone, isn’t it!! It could be a lovely and warm inviting home.
