Lakewold Gardens, Part II

The Lakewold Estate house was built in 1925 as a "country estate", or summer house.  It is located on Gravelly Lake on South Tacoma.


 I'm sure this sun room was added later.




 The sun room opens out to the formal garden along the Brick Walk.







 And then a path leads down into the Woodland Garden.







Part III to follow.
