Property details
About 397 Main St
Greek Revival Charm Meets Creative Potential in the Heart of Franklin Welcome to 397 Main Street — a stately Greek Revival built in 1910 in Franklin New York. The home offers a rare chance to complete a renovation with style and intention, while living in the house. With nearly 2,500 square feet of living space, 5 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms, this home is a design-lover's canvas. Much of the hard renovation work is already behind you: the foundation, electric, plumbing, and insulation have all been updated, allowing you to focus on the creative finishing touches for the front of the home with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Original hardwood floors and period details run throughout, anchoring the home with warmth and character. The back section of the home is awaiting further renovation and could increase the living spaces of the home or add an income producing apartment. Whether you're envisioning a stylish single-family residence, an income-producing duplex, or a live/work setup, the layout offers flexibility and room to dream. There is also a large, beautiful red barn on the property which once had animals in it, and could be converted to another income producing unit, or a massive studio, maybe a small business? Located on a .30-acre lot in the heart of the village, the property is walkable to everything Franklin has to offer — the Franklin Stage Company, parks, shops, town pool, and a growing creative community drawn by the town's quiet charm and recent revitalization efforts. This is more than just a renovation project — it's an opportunity to invest in a home with soul, in a town that's redefining what small-town living can be.
