The story
- Basement
What if you could live minutes from Historic Downtown Franklin while coming home to a private wooded retreat high above the surrounding landscape? Perched atop a wooded hillside on approximately 5 acres in one of Franklin’s premier luxury corridors, this unique property offers privacy, elevation, natural beauty, and convenient access to shopping, dining, entertainment, and downtown Franklin. Located outside Franklin city limits, enjoy county-only property taxes just minutes from the heart of Franklin. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road shared with only one neighboring property, the home is surrounded by mature trees, with wooded terrain behind the residence, a spacious side yard, and additional level ground near the creek bed. The natural elevation, year-round creek views, abundant wildlife, and star-filled skies create a peaceful escape. Enjoy relaxing by the creek, gathering around a campfire, or simply taking in the beauty of nature. Inside, the 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home features soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, a fireplace, formal dining room, spacious eat-in kitchen with island, and a window-lined sunken den overlooking the woods. The primary suite offers two oversized walk-in closets and a spa-like bath with double vanities, soaking tub, and shower. A secondary bedroom features a private ensuite, ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Additional features include a fenced backyard, detached 2-car garage, new roof and gutters (2025), and new main HVAC (2024). Previous inspections were completed to address major repairs and maintenance. The home is move-in ready, with an opportunity for the next owner to make personal updates and add their own style. Thoughtfully priced with these opportunities in mind, this property offers a chance to create your vision in a truly special setting. Local history associates the property with Carl Smith’s “Thankful Valley” (buyer to verify).
