At first glance, it's a straightforward antique set along Lebanon Road. Step inside, and you find a largely intact period home that has changed little over generations. Wide chestnut and first-growth yellow pine plank floors, exposed hand-hewn beams, original paneling, and multiple fireplaces remain in place, reflecting the honest post-and-beam craftsmanship of its era. This is not a reproduction just a genuine Connecticut house waiting for the right steward to bring it forward. The interior retains its original layout and proportions, offering solid structural bones for a full restoration. Rooms are defined by timber framing and natural materials that can't be duplicated today. The home will require comprehensive renovation from roof to foundation, including systems and cosmetics, but the underlying framework provides an exceptional starting point for a historically respectful revival. The property sits on one acre of classic Franklin landscape with open yard space and mature surroundings. Franklin's roots as a farming and milling community are still visible throughout the area, and this home reflects that heritage. Despite the rural setting, you're minutes from Norwich and Colchester for daily needs, with easy access to Route 2 for Hartford and convenient reach to the shoreline, casinos, and the Connecticut River.
