About this home

Step into the prestigious Laughlin Park neighborhood and discover a hidden gem awaiting its revival. The highly coveted 5231 Franklin is now available for the first time in almost five decades, offering five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an impressively large lot that exudes potential. Elevated above the street and shrouded by trees, this once-grand home boasts the timeless charm and sophistication of its era. The entrance welcomes you with a classic pathway and a gate that opens to the famous Laughlin Park - a serene oasis in the heart of the bustling city. However, this property requires an inspired buyer with an eye for design and a passion for renovation. The interior is a blank canvas, waiting to be transformed into a breathtaking masterpiece. Every room needs work, and the home is in need of a complete overhaul. But the reward is great: the chance to create your own vision and restore this residence to its former glory. The potential is endless, limited only by your imagination.
