About This Home
So much potential! This ranch home offers true one-story living, featuring three bedrooms, one full bath, and one half-bath with laundry hookups, all on the ground floor for convenience. The basement is partially finished for extra space and comfort, with direct access to the garage (currently used as storage area, but could easily be converted back). A large fenced yard with inground pool provides endless opportunity for recreation. Industrial zoning and convenient location close to Franklin downtown and the commuter rail opens up even more possibilities. Bring your ideas and your sweat equity and see what amazing transformations you can make! Showings begin at the open house this Saturday from 1:00-2:30
