Buyer’s financing fell through—your second chance to own this gem! Discover the possibilities at 1 Joy Street, a hidden gem in the heart of Franklin. This cozy 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch rests on a lovely, landscaped lot and offers a unique blend of character, functionality, and value. Currently without a kitchen, this unique property—once a professional office—is waiting for your creativity to shape its next chapter. Imagine designing your ideal kitchen, finishing the spacious basement, or utilizing the oversized 12x28 shed for hobbies, storage, or even a workshop. Recent upgrades like a new roof (Nov. 2023) and solar panels you’ll own outright make this a smart move. All in a commuter-friendly location close to I-495, commuter rail, and everyday amenities. Best deal in town. Don't wait!!
