Lynn Haven in Bay County, Florida — The American South (South Atlantic)
Daniel Johnson House
1920
The Johnson house was built in 1920 and has had numerous owners since then. It was bought in 1988 by present owner Daniel Johnson who completely renovated the interior and had vinyl siding placed over the German siding.
The hardwood pine used to build the house helped it withstand the winds of Hurricane Michael in 2018 with no damage to the stone.
