1890's Home In Historic Downtown Franklin

Rose Cottage charms her guests. This Victorian home was built in the 1890's and lies within the original surveyed five block square area of Historic Downtown Franklin.
When you arrive at Rose Cottage, you will be stepping back into the history of Franklin to enjoy a little piece of "times past" with its architecture and furnishings.
Even though the cottage has been completely modernized, it still is reminiscent of another time with careful attention given to the balance between old and new.

Rose Cottage is about a two minute walk to The Square and to Franklin's main attractions, venues and restaurants. There is no struggle to find a place to park
with its location being closer than much of the available parking. It is quite
convenient in the evening to be able to walk home from an evening spent downtown!

The cottage also features a private backyard where one is able to retreat from the
bustle of downtown. The spacious covered patio area is perfect for sipping your morning coffee. The glider and rocking chairs predate WWII. Enjoy perfect outdoor dining at the picnic table. If you are interested in outside sports, a ping pong table,
basketball goal, and croquet are available. There is also a portable fire pit, however you must supply your own wood.

Rose Cottage welcomes guests to enjoy our small town hospitality and the many special events Franklin hosts which make it such a delightful place to visit.

This was our second time staying at one of Susan’s properties and we once again had a fantastic time! Susan was quick to answer all my questions. She was always accommodating and friendly. The property was spotless, comforting, and welcoming. So much room for all of us! The location can’t be beat as it is within walking distance of historic Franklin with shops and restaurants.

Wedding in Franklin

This house was ideal for our stay in Franklin. We attended a friend's wedding and the venue was literally around the corner. Main street is less than a 2 minute walk and the number of coffee shops, bars, restaurants and shops provides something for everyone. The property owner Sue was wonderful. Beautiful, well appointed home ideal for a small group. Would definitely stay again!

Spacious historic home in a prime location, 1.5 blocks from the Franklin Square and near everything in Franklin. Owner was easy to work with and very accommodating. Franklin is one of the friendliest places we've ever visited. Every single person we interacted with in stores and restaurants during our 5 day visit was friendly and seemed genuinely happy to see us. A great experience!

Location, location, location!

We really enjoyed our stay at beautiful Rose Cottage. Very roomy historical home with the convenience of central air/heat. It's proximity to downtown made it so easy to take the short walk back and forth to shop or eat in one of the many great restaurants. Very cool to just walk the neighborhood and check out all the homes and do the Franklin Ghost tour. We would definitely return.
