An extraordinary and rare opportunity to own one of Franklin’s most iconic historic homes, ideally located in the heart of downtown. After nearly 40 years under the same ownership, Mapledene is ready to welcome its next chapter. Built in 1881, this distinguished residence retains much of its original character featuring extra-wide central halls, soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, and marble-clad fireplaces in the twin front parlors. From the moment you approach the grand front porch, with its ornate columns and timeless double doors, you’re greeted by the grace and charm that have defined this home for more than 140 years. A cozy sitting den adds warmth with a third fireplace and a built-in serving bar, ideal for entertaining. The floor plan offers primary bedroom options on both levels, a formal dining room spacious enough for large gatherings, and a kitchen with a stainless gas island range, and abundant cabinetry for storage. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms plus four additional flex rooms that can serve as offices, studios, or additional sleeping quarters. The property also includes a 544 sq. ft. guest house with a full kitchen, living area, and separate bedroom suite—perfect for guests, extended family, or potential rental income. This landmark residence beautifully blends history, livability, and opportunity, all within walking distance of Franklin’s charming Main Street shops, restaurants, and events.
