Homes from the 1980s
Many homes outside the town limits went up in the 1980s. Franklin Farm, with about 1,800 homes, began in 1980. Over 40 years, a house tends to get updated one room at a time. A new kitchen may sit next to an original bathroom with older tile and grout. Older grout takes more scrubbing than new tile, so mention any bathroom that has not been redone. If your basement is finished, count it as rooms when you request a quote, with its own bathroom if it has one. Franklin Farm was planned with miles of trails, ponds and open space. That is the appeal, and it also means mud, leaves and pollen come in through the back door. Have your team wipe the slider glass and vacuum its track each visit, so the grit stays off your floors.
