Newby-Cook House

1420 NE 5th Street  |  Built 1879

The Newby-Cook House is a well-preserved Classical Revival style home that features a large porch and second story balcony. It is located on the far Eastern edge of early McMinnville, on land once owned by McMinnville’s founder William T. Newby.

Newby sold the land to local farmer John F. Cook in 1877. Cook farmed the land and built this classical revival style home on the property two years later in 1879. The home and farm stayed in the Cook family for generations and have served as a McMinnville landmarks ever since.
