Welcome to Newberry!

Affectionately known as the City of Friendly Folks, this beautiful small town is full of history. Established as a county in 1785, this city has been part of American history for centuries, and Newberry College was even used as a hospital for Confederate and Union soldiers in the American Civil War.

In the present, Newberry still has a lot to offer. Named one out of 50 of the most charming small towns in America by the Travel Channel in 2019, this beautiful town has a great climate, good schools, a historic downtown, and a scenic countryside. Though it may be a small town, there's still plenty to do. Newberry is home to several state parks, a water park, wineries, and most notably, the Ritz Theater, the Newberry Museum, and the Newberry Opera House. 

Homes in Newberry come in a variety of architectural styles, from quaint cottages to old historic homes. With Newberry in close proximity to both Lake Murray and Lake Greenwood, this town offers plenty of homes on the lake as well! If a lot of land is what you seek instead, you've come to the right place: Newberry has a variety of "mini-farms" to offer, with properties located on about three to ten acres.
