About This Home

864 N. Franklin – Where Timeless Charm Meets Modern Comfort
Back on the market at $575,000, this beautifully updated property offers the best of both worlds—classic character with thoughtfully curated modern upgrades.

From the moment you arrive, you'll be drawn in by the welcoming porches and tree-shaded setting. Inside the main house, narrow plank oak flooring has been refinished upstairs and down (2025), complementing the fresh interior paint and updated kitchen cabinets. The home features three updated bathrooms, each with new toilets, and a remodeled primary bath showcasing a new shower stall, sink, and a refurbished jetted tub.

Enjoy the comfort of faux wood blinds throughout the main house and the charm of newly refurbished porches that invite you to slow down and enjoy the outdoors.

The guest house which is 307 square feet has also been refreshed with new interior and exterior paint (2025), and the garage received a new galvanized roof (2024), along with fresh paint on both the garage and the potter’s shed.

Other updates include:
• Updated sprinkler system (2025)
• Exterior trim and porches painted on the main house
• New light poles at both gate entrances
• New window screens on garage, potter’s shed, and guest house
