Franklin Real Estate
Located 21 miles South of Nashville you will find the historic town of Franklin. The perfect blend of big-city sophistication and small-town charm. Founded in 1799 and named after national founding father, Benjamin Franklin.
Franklin is home to where one of the bloodiest battles in the Civil War took place. Favorite tourist sites are the tour of the Battle of Franklin, Carnton Plantation, and the Carter House. Great shopping, upscale dining, and fun festivals are a common occurrence for this quaint town.
You can find homes ranging in prices from $200,000 to well over $1 million. Franklin has a small town, intimate atmosphere, but with big city amenities. As you travel through 15 blocks of the downtown area, you will see history come alive in the Antebellum and Victorian homes.
Today, Franklin is the 9th largest city in Tennessee and one of the fastest growing. Cool Springs is easily accessible to Franklin. Today, the governing body of Franklin entails a mayor, a board of 8 Aldermen, and a sustainability committee made up of local citizens — all of whom help to make decisions on the city’s homeowner’s and business policies. The citizens and its governing body must be doing something right, because Franklin has maintained AAA ratings from Moody’s/Standard Poor’s services.
