The Yellow House Landrum 800-543-0714 508 E. Rutherford Street Landrum, South Carolina 29356
Part of the "String of Pearls," Landrum is the first of the towns that line the foothills of South Carolina into the Mountains of North Carolina. Rolling country, vibrant seasons and friendly people are the hallmark of this area of the country. Active in arts, crafts, antiques, and equestrian activities, the area is richly diversified, with something for everyone.
On over an acre of land, The Yellow House is ideally located at the corner of E. Rutherford Street and Bomar Avenue, less than 2 miles (3 minutes) to the Foothills Equestrian Nature Center, (FENCE) the location of nearly weekly horse shows and many other activities, and ten minutes to Harmon Field (about 5.5 miles straight up #176, then #108). It is an easy walk to restaurants and shops, across from Brookwood Park with its beautiful new walking trail, yet very private.
