The Lane–Kendrick–Sherling House is a historic residence in Greenville, Alabama. Built around 1850, the house had several owners before being purchased by attorney and later probate judge L. M. Lane. Lane owned the house until 1921, when it was passed to his daughter, Katie Kendrick, and later to her daughter, Mrs. Dan Sherling. The house is a single story, U-shaped Greek Revival building, with a hipped roof topped by a platform. The five-bay façade has pairs of nine-over-nine sash windows flanking a double entrance door with sidelights and a transom. While the interior plan and floors are original, most of the detailing was added in the 1950s, salvaged from Victorian houses in Montgomery, Mobile, and Birmingham.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
