Leipers Retreat

Set on nearly three secluded acres in the scenic hills of Franklin, this one-of-a-kind cottage is a peaceful retreat where timeless craftsmanship meets thoughtful modern updates. Originally built in the 1930s and lovingly restored by local preservationists, the home features hand-selected antique finishes, a custom limestone fireplace, and repurposed materials that honor its history. Indoors, guests will enjoy a fully equipped chef’s kitchen, inviting living spaces, and cozy bedrooms designed for rest and connection—all surrounded by stunning views from every window. With a shaded front porch, screened-in dining patio, basketball court, and a private yard perfect for play or quiet reflection, the home offers something for every kind of traveler. Located just minutes from the artsy charm of Leiper’s Fork and a short drive to downtown Franklin, guests can explore nearby shops, restaurants, and historic sites, or venture to Nashville for a day in the city. Whether it’s a romantic weekend, a family gathering, or a quiet escape, this hidden gem delivers a soulful stay steeped in southern warmth and storybook charm.
