Newberry House | Johnstone-Rutherford Cottage

1 Bedroom House in Newberry

Located precisely between Newberry College and the Newberry Opera house, the Johnstone-Rutherford Cottage places you within a 10 minute walk or less of either the main college campus or the opera house.
The cottage is part of the Johnstone-Rutherford House complex built by the renowned builder Cam Davis, known for his historic homes here in Newberry and his work at the Biltmore Mansion in Asheville, NC. The cottage has been updated providing historic charm with a touch of modern conveniences.
The space
Enjoy a large bedroom with a king size bed and a spacious living room for relaxing between activities in historic Newberry and Newberry College. The cottage also provides a full kitchen and washer/dryer for your convenience.
Tv and internet are provided in both main rooms. The kitchen has a full array of cooking elements for your use.
Both rooms in the cottage have individual air conditioning (not window units, but wall units close to the ceiling, European ductless style). Additionally, each room has a natural gas wall unit should you need heat. Set these to suit your comfort level.
There is an electric blanket (winter only) for the king size bed should you choose to use it.
Hiding under the carpet were old wood floors as you would expect. We love them. And under the ceiling tile, old wood ceilings.
Please be aware that the ‘crib’ is actually a pack-n-play and is typically available and in the bedroom closet. However, if you need it please make us aware so that we can make sure the unit is in the cottage.
Guest access
Guest have the entire cottage to themselves. The cottage is surrounded by a white picket fence and sits directly across the Newberry College Teaching/Education facility.
Other things to note
Don and Laura live in the Johnstone-Rutherford home adjacent to the cottage. This home is being restored to its original beauty. It will soon be a painted lady! Perhaps the first full painted lady in Newberry.

Summary: It feels historical, solid, wood floors, high ceilings, cozy. A one bedroom one bath cottage close to everything. Comfy king bed, soft linens. Kitchen fully stocked with supplies. Living room has plenty of seating. TV in both living room and bedroom if you want. You can walk anywhere. It was raining, so we drove. Free parking all over town. Easy walk to college- practically on campus. But quiet. Very. Slept well. Owners live in the big house in property behind. Warm greeting and we were happy to find fresh milk in the fridge for morning coffee. Thank you!! Bring your own for the big pot or use the Kuerig. They have both. We will stay there when we return for another concert at the Newberry Opera House.
