The Historic Blakely House is located on Natchez Street, a mere mile away from downtown Franklin. This area holds historical significance, once being the site of the Battle of Franklin. For over a century, it served as a hub for various businesses, many of which were segregated. Franklin has evolved significantly over the years and now finds itself on lists like Big 7 Travel's "Most Charming Small Towns Across America." Downtown Franklin is a harmonious blend of historical preservation and contemporary sophistication. Just 14 miles from Nashville, you'll discover a haven of Southern hospitality within a 16-block historic district, housing award-winning antique shops, local gift stores, fashionable boutiques, privately owned art galleries, lovingly restored residences, and more.

Nashville, Leiper's Fork, Columbia, and a host of other vacation destinations are short drives from the Blakely House.

Please be aware that there is a $95 pet fee for guests bringing their furry companions. Kindly inform us in advance if you plan to bring your pet.

The driveway to the right of the home is shared, though the parking spaces are not. There's ample parking available at the rear of the property.

Two security cameras are installed outside the house, with one focused on the parking area and the other monitoring the front porch.
