About this property

*GREAT*Cottage Apt-Located in Heart of Historic Franklin, TN!

This adorable cottage apartment/duplex is located in the heart of the Franklin historic district and is loaded with charm and amenities. It includes a:
- private deck
- private entrance
- 4 private rooms including living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom
- private wifi and Apple TV (with YouTube TV)

The entire unit is yours, with no shared space. Private deck and entrance overlook the large backyard. Hardwood floors throughout with new tile in the renovated bathroom. New stainless steel appliances and private brand new front load washer and dryer are included as well.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a full-sized refrigerator, sink with disposal, the all-important Keurig machine, microwave, and a new, full-sized electric range (stove and oven). The bathroom was recently, completely renovated and includes new tile, tub/shower, a double vanity, and comfy new towels.

The large bedroom houses a queen pillow top bed with luxurious Pottery Barn and high thread-count linens and a large closet. The living room has closet space as well and is set-up to be used as a great hang-out space with a comfy sectional sofa. For fellow allergy sufferers, all linens are down alternatives, and washed with fragrance free detergent.

The apartment is authorized to sleep 6 but it is actually setup for 2 people. If you are planning on a stay with more than 2 people, please reach out to us prior to booking so we can make sure that it meets your needs.

The apartment is ideally located in the historic district, on the north side of Franklin, less than 3 miles from Cool Springs and I-65, and near the Factory. It’s an easy 2 block walk to Harlinsdale Farm, less than a block to the Factory with its weekend Farmers Market, and 2 blocks to historic Main Street, while still being a quick drive to all the restaurants and shops located in Cool Springs.

For the past 3 years the apartment has been rented to business travelers on a 3-month basis and with the exception of the holidays and Pilgrimage Festival, we are still looking for long-term renters (minimum of 90 days). There are discounts for longer rentals (i.e., more than 6 months). All of our renters have only had positive feedback, including one Zillow customer who wrote: “I loved it!”

Attention Pilgrimage Renters: Our apt is one of the closest rental opportunities you will find to Harlinsdale Park. As a result, you do not need to pay for parking and can easily walk the block and a half to the park. Many of our previous Pilgrimage renters enjoy attending the festival and then coming back to the apt periodically during the day for respite between their favorite performances. It always rents quickly, so contact us with any inquiries ASAP if you are interested.

Sorry, absolutely no smokers or tobacco product users (including outside users and e-cigarette and smokeless tobacco products). Only small non-shedding dogs allowed - please, contact us prior to booking to insure your dog is okay. If you get to join us with your furry friend, they will enjoy the large, fenced 1/2 acre backyard. It really is a puppy paradise!!

We welcome questions and inquiries and can be reached by text anytime at: 615-308-6137. We are a proud military family, with a son in the US Navy, and hold professional degrees (attorney and PhD) ourselves. We live in the remainder of the residence - with the thick insulated walls, you're likely to never know we're there - but we are available to help should you need any guidance during your stay. We hope to get to meet you and welcome you into our family of renters in the near future!!

God Bless – the Davis Family

Wonderful Stay
The cottage was perfect for our stay in Franklin. It was close to downtown and also close to the Pilgrimage Festival. DJ has created a welcoming cottage, and we truly enjoyed the beautiful private deck that overlooked an expansive backyard. DJ provided excellent check-in instructions, and was very responsive to our inquiries. We would definitely stay here again.

Franklin cottage
Very good location. Nice size to property, but a little small to fit more than 2 people. The bed is small - double, maybe? - but otherwise, very lovely to be here!

About the host

Hosted by D.J. Davis

Host profile image
We are a proud military family, with a son on active duty with the US Navy. We are long-term residents of Franklin and can give you advice and directions to almost any of the town's local attractions. We live quietly in the remainder of the home, and in our spare time enjoy creating stained glass art projects, one of which can be seen in the transom of the apartment's kitchen.

Why they chose this property

We admired this house from afar for at least 15 years before it became available. It is one of the few 1920s cottages located in the area, and the only one on almost an acre lot. The large deck, porches, and rocking chairs allow for leisurely enjoyment of the yards and gardens, while the location allows you to enjoy walks to Main Street, Harlinsdale Farm, the Factory, and beyond. It has been an honor owning this property and the income from the cottage apt allows us to continue to maintain and update it as needed.

What makes this property unique

We have lived on both the North and South sides of Franklin's historic district and far prefer the North side, where this rental is located. It involves all of the charm of the historic district, while remaining much more convenient to the restaurants and shopping found in Cool Springs and is easily accessible to I-65, located just 3 miles away. Sometimes traffic in the heart of Franklin can get so congested that living further into town can add 10-15 minutes onto any drive. Now that we've lived on the North side for the past 7 years, we can't imagine being anywhere else.
