About this home

Some homes just feel right the moment you arrive, and 153 Franklin Street is one of them. Built in 1949 and thoughtfully updated by the previous architect owners who respected every detail of its era, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home blends mid-century character with contemporary living in a way that feels completely intentional. The kitchen and baths were each renovated with the kind of care that only comes from someone who truly understands design, honoring the home's original character while bringing it forward. The living room fireplace anchors the heart of the home, and the covered back porch extends that sense of ease into the outdoors. Tucked away from the street, the backyard offers a rare private oasis in the middle of downtown Brevard. Whether you are unwinding after a day on the trails or entertaining friends on a warm evening, this space delivers. The recently updated guest house adds exceptional flexibility to the property. With a new kitchen and bath, refinished floors, and fresh paint throughout, it works beautifully as a guest suite, income-producing rental, home office, or creative studio. The possibilities are genuinely open. The location puts everything within reach. Walk to Brevard's beloved park and pool, stroll to downtown restaurants and locally owned shops, or roll out directly onto the city path that connects you to Pisgah National Forest. In Brevard, that kind of access is everything. Homes with this combination of quality, character, and location do not come along often.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
