About This Home

As of June 2026

Location is everything! This charming 3-bed, 1.5-bath home offers freshly painted living space right in the heart of Franklin. Enjoy peace of mind with extensive recent updates, including new carpets (2026) in the living room & bedrooms, new lighting fixtures, and a new back door (2026). The kitchen features a newer dishwasher and stove, plus updated flooring. Major essentials have been handled, from the main roof (2019) to the energy-efficient mini-splits for cooling.

The property features a detached 1-car garage and a fully fenced backyard, perfect for summer BBQs. If you’ve been looking for that "walk-to-everything" lifestyle with all the big projects already done, this is the one. Come see why life on Cottage St is so special!
