Description

Built in 1876 and thoughtfully updated for today's lifestyle, this two-story home offers the character of a classic Indiana residence with the peace of mind of modern improvements. A newer roof, refreshed bathrooms, and an updated kitchen mean the big-ticket items are already done - so you can simply move in and enjoy. Inside, you'll find 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 8 rooms across approximately 1,400 square feet of well-maintained living space. The updated kitchen flows naturally into the home's warm, welcoming layout, while fresh carpet in the dining room adds a clean, finished feel. Outside, the property truly shines. A large detached garage and extra rear parking provide exceptional storage and convenience - a rare find for a home with this much character. The 0.19-acre lot offers just the right amount of outdoor space to relax or entertain. Best of all, you're just steps from everything historic downtown Franklin has to offer - coffee shops, restaurants, bars, boutique shopping, and a year-round calendar of community events. This is the kind of location that makes everyday life feel a little more special.
