ABOUT THIS HOME
The timeless appeal and nostalgic charm of this classic mid-1800s American home are evident at every turn. From the richly detailed exterior trim and inviting covered front porch to the traditional vestibule, the home beautifully showcases its historic character. Soaring ceilings, finely crafted woodwork, elegant transom doorways, and leaded stained-glass windows evoke the warmth and craftsmanship of a forgone era while creating an atmosphere filled with endless character. Thoughtfully maintained and extensively updated, this residence seamlessly blends historic beauty with modern convenience. Over the last 10 years, major improvements include a new roof, updated electrical system, restored kitchen cabinetry with granite countertops, replacement of most plumbing, a new main sewer and water line, updated upper-level windows, and the addition of a new deck. Three years ago, the home received a complete HVAC system and new water heater. More recent enhancements include a newly constructed front porch, re-building of the main-level windows, a rebuilt front door, fresh exterior paint, updated landscaping, and re-graveled rear parking. Perfectly located within walking distance of all the shops, dining, and entertainment downtown Franklin has to offer, this exceptional property provides a rare opportunity to own a piece of history without sacrificing comfort or convenience. Don't miss your chance to make this remarkable home your own.
