Property description
Meticulously maintained Victorian three-family home in the heart of Franklin! Built in 1900, this property offers three spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath units with separate utilities across 2,959 sq ft on a .21-acre lot. Units 1 & 2 were fully renovated in 2023, while Unit 3 features refinished floors and fresh paint. Major updates include roof (2009), exterior paint (2024), porch improvements (2018-2019), and new back deck/stairs (2025). Units 1 & 2 include in-unit laundry, with basement hookups for Unit 3. Shared driveway with 6 parking spaces. Two units are leased, while the vacant second-floor unit creates an ideal owner-occupant or investment opportunity. Conveniently located near the train station, Dean College, and Downtown Franklin shops and restaurants, this property blends historic charm with modern updates and strong income potential.
