Welcome to 246 4th Avenue South in Downtown Franklin, Tennessee.
Mike and I feel so fortunate to live in the beautiful neighborhood and especially on this incredibly special street so close to Main Street Franklin. We hope you enjoy the area as much as we do.
A little history on us: We grew up in Moline, Illinois and have moved a lot during our 26 years of marriage. Starting our married life together in St. Louis Missouri, we then went on to Wauwatosa, Wisconsin where we had our first 2 daughters born. After that quick stop in Wisconsin which was just long enough to have 2 babies and become Packers Fans, we then headed out to Southern California (Stevenson Ranch, CA) – 9 months later we had our 3rd Daughter Elise. We had a wonderful 8 years in sunny CA then headed to Mooresville NC (Lake Norman/ Charlotte NC area) and we were there for almost 13 years!
Believe it or not we have only lived in the beautiful Historic Home since August 19, 2018. Because it is a Historic Home, we look at our current situation living here as “Grounds keepers” of a beautiful piece of history. We will do our best to keep it in tip top shape and hopefully even make some improvements.
Upon purchase of the property, we aspired to build out the 2nd floor of the Garage as a special place that we could share with guests and family. We completed this project November 2020! (It is one of the BEST things for us that came out of 2020)
Lastly, you may wonder why we call it THE SWORDFISH SUITE?
It is NOT because we are deep sea fisherman and we do not have a Pet Swordfish!
