About this property

Game Room • Outdoor Lounge • Quick Drive to Downtown | The Carolyn House

  • Welcome to The Carolyn House, a stylish and inviting retreat designed for easy gatherings and memorable Tennessee getaways. Tucked into a quiet area just minutes from historic city centre Franklin, this four-bedroom home blends comfort, character, and entertainment—perfect for families, friends, or a laid-back group escape.

    Inside, the home is bright, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for connection. The comfortable living room invites you to settle in after a day out, while the fully equipped kitchen makes cooking for a crowd effortless. A high-top table with seating for eight keeps everyone together—whether it’s morning coffee, game night snacks, or pre-dinner drinks.

    Entertainment is a highlight here. The dedicated game room features a pool table, bar setup, and TV—ideal for friendly competition, game days, or late-night hangs. It’s the kind of space that naturally becomes the heart of the stay.

    Outdoors, the covered lounge is made for long Southern evenings. Fire up the BBQ, gather around the dining table for eight, or relax in the seating area as the day winds down. With string-light vibes and plenty of room to spread out, it’s a favourite spot from morning to night.

    When it’s time to rest, the home comfortably sleeps up to eight guests. The primary suite features a king bed and private ensuite with a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms—two with queen beds and one with twin beds—offer flexible sleeping arrangements, supported by two more well-appointed bathrooms.

    Location-wise, you’re perfectly positioned. Historic city centre Franklin is just a short drive away, known for its charming Main Street, boutique shopping, acclaimed restaurants, and live music. Explore local favourites like The Factory at Franklin, Carnton Plantation, and nearby hiking trails, or head north to experience the energy of Nashville—Broadway, concerts, and sporting events are all within easy reach.

Going forward anytime I need to come to Franklin for work. This is where I’m staying. I’ve stayed in a lot of BNB and Vrbo’s and this is one of the best.

Family of 5 stayed at the Carolyn house to be close to a family event in Franklyn. House was cute and spacious and completely fine for our needs. Kids loved the pool table in the basement and the kitchen worked well for the meals we had in the space. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The house is very convenient to grocery stores and multiple attractions in Franklin. Communication with Avant Stay is excellent! A couple areas for improvement: the house had a musty smell when we arrived. It dissipated after a day or so but it was notable. The mattress in the master bedroom is too big for the frame so if you sit or lay on the side not supported by the frame you'll slide right down to the floor. Lastly I'll note that the backyard didn't match the pictures. It was older and covered in cobwebs and the corn hole was broken. It was too hot and buggy out for us to want to use it but it should be cleaned for future guests and consider including tiki candles or other mosquito repellent.
