10 Matlock Memories Rd., Franklin, NC 28734

On the market for the first time since it was built, this abode is clean and bright, with high ceilings and two sets of French doors which beckon you from the living room to the wraparound deck. The kitchen is spacious and open, with two more sets of French doors, gorgeous pine floors, and a pantry. Two bedrooms and a bath are on the main level, while upstairs is a guest room and the roomy primary suite, with a walk-in shower and jetted tub. The downstairs encompasses a large area for a rec room or media room and opens to the gently sloping yard where a hot tub awaits. In recent years, the home has been updated with a new roof and woodshed, new carpeting, and lighting fixtures. This private retreat has been well-loved by its owners, and it shows.
