Ten-foot ceilings and hardwood floors throughout give the home a bright, open feel, and the great room with a fireplace makes it easy to relax or entertain. The kitchen is a total showstopper with white cabinets, stainless appliances, gas cooktop, pot filler, farmhouse sink, beautiful backsplash, and a huge pantry. The laundry room is conveniently located right off the kitchen and garage too. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a flex space that could work perfectly as an office, nursery, or home gym. The ensuite bath has a soaking tub, a gorgeous tiled shower, and double vanities. Two more bedrooms, a full double vanity bath, and an open loft space round out the second floor. Out back, enjoy your morning coffee on the screened-in porch overlooking a fully fenced backyard, a peaceful spot right in the middle of town. This home was designed by P. Shea, who is known for attention to detail and quality craftsmanship. The home is also eligible for owner-occupied short-term rentals and long-term leasing, offering great flexibility whether you’re buying to live full-time, part-time, or to invest.

    "This location is nearly perfect for any lifestyle. There is numerous venues for shopping, dining and entertainment mostly within a 5-10 minutes car ride and its only 30 minutes for all Nashville has to offer. The schools are top rated in the US every year. There are numerous well maintained parks nearby, including two dog parks that dogs can run freely inside a designated area. The community events in Franklin and surrounding areas seem to be never ending and they are very creative and diverse, There are too many churches of every denomination to even list a number. There are around 3-4 live show theaters in Franklin alone and others nearby. People walk and jog through the neighborhoods on a regular basis and there are other fitness locations such as rock climbing, yoga and martial arts studios everywhere. "

    "Moved into this area a little over a year ago. I was a first time home buyer and have fallen in love with the area! I plan on staying in the area for many years to come and eventually raise a family here. The people are just so nice! Also, its very convenient living so close to the charming downtown Historic Franklin. Not to mention I am only 2 minutes from The Factory which is a wonderful shopping district that features many wonderful stores, restaurants, weekly farmers market, and much more! Overall I think this is a great area for first time home buyer or the family looking for a area to call home. "
