Why this home stands out

Built in 1910, this home carries the charm of its era while offering practical updates. High ceilings and period details blend with functional layouts.

That's the rare combination that defines homes for sale in Franklin with real character.

ALL OTHERS AREA 67 and the Franklin real estate market

Franklin's downtown core runs along North High Street, and this address sits right in the middle of it. The neighborhood mixes residential charm with walkable access to local business. You'll find brick storefronts, tree-lined sidewalks, and a genuine sense of community here.

Daily life here moves at a human pace, with local restaurants and shops within steps of home.
