4033 New Highway 96 W

Rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind private retreat in the heart of Franklin. Nestled atop a wooded 7.5-acre hilltop, this approximately 2,700-square-foot home offers exceptional privacy, breathtaking views, and an unbeatable location. Enjoy easy access to the Natchez Trace Parkway, while being just minutes from Westhaven and historic downtown Franklin. Convenient to shopping, dining, entertainment and every convenience you can imagine. Surrounded by mature trees and natural beauty, the property feels worlds away yet remains close to everything the surrounding area has to offer. The existing home is full of character and presents an incredible opportunity for renovation, customization, or expansion. While the home could benefit from updating and some TLC, the potential of this remarkable property is undeniable. The spacious family room serves as the heart of the home and opens directly to a large kitchen. A generously sized main-level bedroom could easily function as a primary suite - it just needs the addition of an ensuite bathroom. Also on the main level has a large office with a full bathroom nearby, offering flexibility for remote work. There is a garage space that was previously utilized as a metal fabrication workshop where many distinctive handcrafted pieces were created. Adjacent to the workshop is a spacious 30' x 15' studio that once housed a stained-glass workshop. This versatile space could serve as a recreation room, playroom, art studio, workshop, or home gym. Upstairs, you'll find two large bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Whether you choose to renovate the existing home into your own private sanctuary or build your dream estate on the lower portion of the property, this exceptional acreage offers endless possibilities. Properties combining this level of privacy, natural beauty, and proximity to Franklin are exceedingly rare. Bring your vision and unlock the full potential of this extraordinary hilltop retreat.
