Fawn's Nest is a little house that sits atop a small hill, off an old country road. On just over an acre, it is peaceful and pretty, with a proper wrap around porch. The cottage has been renovated with beautiful craftsmanship. It's got magic, there is really something to this place that in all its quiet, speaks volumes to those who spend time there.

Inside, the wood ceilings are vaulted, wide plank wood floors and curated lighting and hardware texture the rooms, and arched, open doorways original to the home create an open, studio feel. Antique windows from Preservation Station tie it all together and bring inviting natural light to every room.

Outside, the front yard by the cottage is grassy for play, then slopes uphill into trees. The property is fenced and there is a shed out back for storage, with a matching metal roof. On the opposite side of the drive, a concrete patio sits next to a large, flat parking pad with hook-ups for an entertaining area, an Airstream or RV.

With its small footprint, the home is incredibly easy to maintain. The property is on well water, with a whole house filtration system inside. And it's on septic, so no sewer bill. The only monthly expenses are electric and internet. With a stellar history of Airbnb and as a long-term rental, it makes for a perfect investment property.

Located 2.7 miles to the shops and lifestyle in the village of Leiper's Fork and a 20 minute drive to Main St in downtown Franklin.

The furnishings and finishes are a mix of antique and modern w/ the aim of cozy comfort. Should a buyer want to purchase furnished, aside from a few personal items, the furniture and decor are all negotiable.

Owner/Agent. New roof 2024, new HVAC 2023, driveway graded and re-stoned in July 2025. The cottage renovation was completed in the summer of 2022. Please see attached for full list of improvements.
