Completely Renovated Historical Cottage -- Walking distance to Downtown Franklin

Welcome to Serenity Cottage
Here to experience all the charm and beauty of Franklin? You’ve picked the perfect place!

Serenity Cottage is more than just a name—it’s a dream brought to life. This home is built on land where soldiers once fought during the Civil War between the North and South. It’s even possible to find old gun shells in the backyard—a quiet, humbling reminder of the area’s deep history. I envisioned turning this land into a place of peace, healing, and beauty, which is why I named it Serenity Cottage.

Today, this cozy and inviting home offers a tranquil escape just 0.4 miles from the heart of Downtown Franklin. Enjoy a scenic walk to explore charming coffee shops, delicious local restaurants, and one-of-a-kind boutiques. Whether you're here for the rich history, Main Street festivals, live music, or antique shopping, Serenity Cottage is the perfect place to unwind after a day of adventure.

The Space:
Welcome to our charming 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with an additional den that features a large workspace desk and a full-size daybed—perfect for comfortably hosting up to 5 guests. Both bedrooms are outfitted with luxurious California King beds, and every room includes a TV for your entertainment. The living area also features a beautiful fireplace, creating a cozy space to relax and unwind.

From the moment you arrive, you’ll be greeted by freshly redone landscaping and a welcoming front porch—ideal for sipping your morning coffee and soaking in the neighborhood charm.

Inside, the open-concept kitchen offers a warm and inviting space to cook, entertain, and gather with friends or family. It comes fully equipped with everything you need for your culinary plans!

This cottage is beautiful and immaculately clean. In a very quiet neighborhood. It was just a 4 minute drive into downtown Franklin. Had it been cooler, we would've walked. It would only be about 20mins walk into downtown. Gorgeous and well maintained historic district. So many amenities nearby, history, whiskey and music everywhere. Owner was so kind in communicating when we asked questions. Would recommend, will book again.

CUTEST cottage/house in Tennessee!!! PERFECTION

My husband and I were in the Nashville area for a week and Serenity Cottage fit our needs perfectly. It was super cute online and I was worried it wouldn't be as cute in person. I was so wrong. It's even prettier in person!! Georgia, the owner, has spent her time and talent curating every detail from the artwork to the dishes. She was a pleasure to work with and was easy to communicate with. If I ever go back to Nashville for a long term stay I will definitely stay again and I would highly recommend this lovely home to anyone who is looking for a modern, yet cute and charming getaway. I kept saying over and over again - how charming this house was and felt blessed that it was available during our time in Nashville. Don't hesitate to rent this home. You will not be sorry. It is a GEM of a house!!!!!

Perfect getaway

My husband and I traveled with another couple for a little getaway and Franklin did not disappoint. The house was even better than pictured, my girlfriend and I love interior design and loved every little detail of this charming home. Location was very convenient to historic downtown, groceries and a short drive to Leipers Fork and Nashville. The neighborhood was very quiet and we even had people walking by welcoming us to the area. Georgia and her assistant were quick to respond to any questions and our stay was absolutely perfect. We loved this area, beautiful town with great people. We would definitely return and would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Cottage!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful cottage, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the charming exterior and the serene surroundings. The interior was impeccably organized and tastefully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The cozy living area and well-equipped kitchen made it a home away from home. Whether sipping coffee on the porch or enjoying a serene evening, the experience was simply magical. The host’s hospitality was exceptional. They provided clear instructions and were readily available to answer any questions, making the whole stay seamless and enjoyable. I felt like a valued guest throughout my visit. This cottage is an oasis of tranquility, perfect for anyone seeking a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I can’t recommend it enough and can’t wait to return. Thank you for providing such a wonderful and memorable experience!
