Property Description

Built in 1899 as a schoolhouse and thoughtfully converted into 20 distinctive residences, The Residences at Franklin School is an award-winning landmark — recognized with the PRISM Award for Best Condominium Conversion in New England and a Housing Design Award.Unit 304 is a bright, sun-filled corner unit offering 1,198 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space. Soaring high ceilings and oversized windows flood the home with natural light throughout the day, and the open-concept living area is genuinely spacious — large enough to host 10+ guests comfortably (the current owner once hosted 18 for Friendsgiving). The original hardwood floors are exceptional quality — rich, durable, and beautifully preserved. The thick brick construction does what modern buildings can't: naturally cool in summer, warm in winter, with virtually no noise from neighbors. The split-bedroom layout means both bedrooms are fully separated — perfect for privacy whether you're working from home or hosting guests
