Ask a questionAbout Mary Ellen Redford
Although, born raised and educated in Nashville, Mary Ellen married Clyde Redford of Franklin in 1969. He and his father grew up in this house, which was built by Clyde's grandfather in 1902. Mary Ellen lives south of Leiper's Fork, about a 25 minute drive from the FBI.
Mary Ellen Redford purchased this House in 1899
Why Mary Ellen Redford chose Franklin
This property has been passed down from one generation to the next. Sam Redford built this home and others in Franklin between 1899 and 1902 having purchased the land from what had been part of the Carter plantation. This home holds great sentimental value for the Redford family, so much so that when the 5th generation, Emily Redford, moved out, we decided to restore it, preserve it, keep it in the family for future generations and share it with others. Today we are offering our family home for travelers seeking comfort, luxury and ambiance in their travel accommodations.
What makes this House unique
Staying at the Franklin Battlefield Inn is a step back into time, a slower, gentler time of charm and grace. Built only 38 years after the Civil War, this property was on the battlefield. History abounds. Visit the Historic Carter House and Carnton Mansion. Perhaps a ghost tour would appeal to you. The back deck and back yard with a fire pit offer visitors the opportunity to sit back, relax and enjoy their time together. We think you will feel the love that has gone into restoring the old and creating the new aspects of this home. It is not a Victorian Museum, but rather a charming and comfortable place to make new memories.
