About the host

Hosted by John Newhouse

Host profile image
My home town is Rushville Indiana. I love the small town atmosphere and the town of Rushville was just that. I did spend most of my adult life in California but when the opportunity came up to move back we did. This has been a dream of ours to retire and run an Inn. We love meeting new people and learning about their own adventures in life.

Why they chose this property

When we saw this property for sale and found out about its history it was a great fit. It just felt right and it is only 20 miles away form my home town. Lewisville is a great small town and great people live here. Just far enough from the big city, Indy but close enough to drive there in less than an hour.

What makes this property unique

My wife and I just love the history of the home. Built in 1897 as the Lewisville School House, it still has that feel of the school and the history behind it. It is one of the largest 2 story red brick homes in town with a very large 1 acre land scape. You can sit in the yard and watch the sun rise or set.
