This Charming Airbnb In Rhode Island Used To Be A Schoolhouse And You’ll Want To Stay

You'll find Old Tiverton Four Corners Schoolhouse No. 1 nestled at the intersection of Historic Tiverton Four Corners in Tiverton, Rhode Island. The building dates back to the 1800s but now serves as a cozy Airbnb for visitors to the scenic state.

The exterior of the home has been carefully preserved to resemble its historic use as a schoolhouse. But the interior is new construction with the amenities of a contemporary home and then quaint, historic decor of a country getaway.

Guests are welcome to use the functioning, wood-burning fireplace and the hosts leave a bundle of wood at the ready for that purpose.

In terms of contemporary amenities the property offers WiFi, several TVs, a whirlpool tub, high-efficiency laundry, and central heating and cooling.

During your stay you'll encounter all kinds of delightful historical artifacts. One such item is a vintage twenty-four inch, cast-iron school bell. Instead of ringing it to assemble students, perhaps you give it a ring to gather your loved ones for meal time.

Tiverton may have grown and changed since the schoolhouse was built, but the history still runs deep. The current Airbnb hosts had the opportunity to speak with a descendent of one of the house's former owners. That kind of close knit community spirit is refreshingly alive in this tiny Rhode Island town.

The schoolhouse offers five acres of grounds for strolling, or you can walk five minutes into the center of Tiverton to enjoy the shops and restaurants there.

No matter what your educational experience has been like, this is one school building you'll actually be excited to go to. Entrenched in history, bursting with community stories, and appointed with contemporary amenities, this schoolhouse Airbnb is a must-visit in the Tiverton area.
