About this House

Sunset or sunrise? Why not both! With end-of-the-road privacy and top-of-the-ridge views, this 2,350 sq. ft. home has it all! Privately sited in the much-sought-after subdivision of Laurel Ridge, outside city limits and taxes, yet just a few miles to all Franklin has to offer (and next to Mill Creek Golf Course). The owners - a Professional Chef and a Master Baker - renovated and created a lovely home that, with the close of a door becomes two great living spaces. The main floor has the Chef's kitchen - all SS appliances, granite top, propane stove - and open LR/DR with cathedral ceiling. The LR opens to the large deck with SPECTACULAR views! The en-suite primary w/walk-in closet also opens to a screened porch. Let's not forget the tile and granite fireplace to enjoy while watching the view! Downstairs is an equally creative space the second full en-suite primary, LR/DR/K open space that features a great Baker's kitchen! Plus, it has its own entrance. BOTH floors have a full size washer & dryer and separate HVAC system. Keep the door open and a family has room to roam. The home has a two-car carport and a separate, new 10'x20' finished artists studio - heat/air/electric!

    "Most events held in Franklin NC are old-fashioned and geared towards the elderly age group. Up to date technology is not widely used and internet is rarely available here. There is very little to do in Franklin for the 18 - 45 year old age range, unless you like to hike. Easy trip to make a Asheville though for fun. "
