831 Rutherford Road

The Rose Arden sits hidden at the edge of Greenville’s highly sought after North Main Community. With its mature magnolia and hardwood trees surrounding the retreat, you may not get a glimpse of the 100-year-old stone home until you drive through one of the two entrances and approach the stunning front porch or the side port cochere. The home sits on nearly an acre and includes another 1.

75 acres of gently sloped land leading to two streams and a natural spring. This area is utilized by the owners to entertain friends by one of several fire pits. Their children and friends have wandered and played along the expansive landscape that creates a sense of privacy and a natural habitat for songbirds, owls, hawks, turkeys, foxes and other wildlife.

In 1921, a local family, who had made their fortune in the furniture business, commissioned the stone home to be built. The blue slate granite was acquired from a quarry in Winnsboro, SC to construct the exterior. The grounds, known to be covered with hundreds of rose and azaleas bushes, gave the property its name - The Rose Arden.
