Lafayette is located in north central Tennessee near the Kentucky line, about 65 miles northeast of Nashville. It is a rural community with a
population around 4,000. However, there is a Super Wal-Mart and TSC located on Hwy 52 about 1 mile from downtown.

The house was built cir 1947 by the Coley family. This entire area was once part of the Coley farm. They sold all the land north of Coleytown Rd, which was sub-divided into 2 & 3 arce lots. The smaller Coley farm is still located on the south side of Coleytown Rd. This area has some restrictions: no trailers or pre-manufactured homes. Horses and farm type animals are allowed. The previous owner had several horses and 2 calves. However, they took most of the electric fencing. It wasn't replaced because we didn't have any animals. The house is located about 5 miles from downtown Lafayette.

In our opinion, the yard needs more trees and other greenery. We have started fixing that by planting 15 Emerald Green Thuja trees along the west property line by the house for more privacy and wind barrier. We have also planted 2 Southern Pine, 4 Maples, 2 Magnolias, 1 Oak and more throughout the yard. We plan to continue planting a couple more each payday as the planting seasons permit.
