Property Description

Mid-19th century Greek Revival with unlimited potential. Behind its classic façade, you’ll find over 2,500 square feet of space already underway in a thoughtful restoration. Many of the most important updates utilities, plumbing, electric, insulation, and water systems have been taken care of, giving you the freedom to focus on design and finishing touches. The main floor offers bright and generous gathering spaces, including two large parlors, a wide kitchen and dining area with direct porch access, and original wood details that add warmth throughout. Upstairs, a sweeping staircase leads to a primary suite waiting to be reimagined. What sets this property apart is its flexibility. A soaring garage/studio at the rear, large enough for multiple vehicles, RVs, or even a boat, offers endless possibilities whether as a workshop, creative space, or future conversion. The unfinished back portion of the house could be transformed into additional apartments, guest quarters, or an expansive live/work setup. Franklin itself is a picturesque Catskills village alive with culture and community spirit. Cafés, galleries, shops and the Franklin Stage Company are all a short walk away. Conveniently located 15 minutes Oneonta and Cooperstown’s All Star Village and a little under three hours to the GW Bridge. This property offers both a peaceful retreat and a savvy investment opportunity. Sold as-is.
