151 Franklin Rd
Description
Overwhelmed with history, every room in this...Undeniably Franklin's most iconic residence, Riverview Mansion has stood as a luminary example of grace and splendor for over 120 years. Integral to Franklin's rich history, Riverview has served as the residence of past mayors, physicians, and visionaries. Original portions of the home were built in 1902 by the celebrated Henry Mayberry, with further enhancements in 1940. This opulent home features four generously sized bedrooms and four lavish bathrooms.
Overwhelmed with history, every room in this stately home tells a beautiful and unique story. The refined living space is decorated with the home's original wallpaper, a dramatic 360-degree stairwell that elegantly ascends without needing a center pole (a first of its kind) and silk drapes displaying a silent testimony to its splendid past. The formal dining room is furnished with prize-winning pieces from the 1893 Chicago World's Fair Expo, adding a layer of intrigue and culture. Select pieces available for purchase.
Not to be overshadowed, the third-floor ballroom was once the venue for enchanting twentieth-century galas. The estate is enriched further with a charming 1800s log cabin, featuring one bedroom and one bathroom, currently used as an income-producing short-term rental. The home’s original smokehouse is on-site as well.
The sprawling 15 acres provides a sense of privacy and escape, accommodating a Sears & Roebuck craftsman-style horse barn with ten stalls, complete with a tack room and a spacious hay loft, poised to delight equestrian enthusiasts.
Step into a living piece of history, where every corner tells a story, and modern amenities meet historical splendor for a truly unique lifestyle with all of the perks of being in the middle of Historic Downtown Franklin. Please see attachment in doc section for further comprehensive history!
