Minutes from Main Street | Private Franklin Retreat | Fowlkes Street
Welcome to Fowlkes Street, a quaint and charming retreat tucked right into the heart of Franklin—where historic character, walkable streets, and modern comfort come together for an easy, inviting stay.
Set just moments from downtown Franklin, this home puts you close to the town’s most-loved spots. Spend your days strolling Main Street’s boutiques and antique shops, grabbing coffee at local cafés, or settling in for dinner at one of Franklin’s standout restaurants. History lovers will appreciate nearby Civil War landmarks, while a short drive brings you to Leipers Fork’s scenic backroads, live music, and artisan shops. When Nashville calls, Music City is an easy drive away for concerts, nightlife, and big-city energy—without giving up Franklin’s slower, small-town charm.
Inside, the home feels clean, bright, and thoughtfully designed. Beautiful windows fill the space with natural light, highlighting the modern décor and comfortable layout. The living room invites you to unwind with a plush sectional sofa and TV—perfect after a day of exploring. Just beyond, the dining table seats six, with additional barstool seating at the kitchen counter for casual meals and conversation.
The sleek, fully equipped kitchen is stocked with all the essentials, making everything from quick breakfasts to home-cooked dinners simple and enjoyable. Each of the four bedrooms is designed for comfort, including one with double beds for extra space and flexibility. Another bedroom features a dedicated desk, ideal for students or remote workers who need a quiet place to focus. With 3.5 bathrooms, everyone can enjoy plenty of privacy and convenience throughout the stay.
Step outside to the front patio and settle into the rocking chairs—a perfect spot for morning coffee or winding down in the evening. Added perks like in-home laundry, convenient parking, and dog-friendly accommodations make this home as practical as it is charming.
Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway, a family visit, or a longer stay in one of Tennessee’s most beloved towns, Fowlkes Street offers a warm, comfortable home base right where you want to be.

There's a reason Nashville, TN, has become one of the country's most loved southern cities. With its vibrant nightlife, country music scene, and incredible food, "Nashvegas" is a top destination for people simply looking to have a good time- which means lots of drinking and eating. Visitors flock to Broadway, a street lined with multi-level bars playing live music and serving BBQ. You might get stuck in traffic behind party bikes called Pedal Taverns, but you're more likely to cheer them on than get road rage because having fun is part of the culture in Nashville.
Local Attractions: Broadway, Nashville Farmer's Market, Ryman Auditorium, Honky Tonk, Bridgestone Arena, Centennial Park, Monell's (Southern), Rolf and Daughters (Italian), Henrietta Red (Seafood), O-ku (Sushi)
