A historic ranch in the Forest Hills section of Nashville was missing those key elements when painter Elizabeth Stern bought it in 2020, but it had other unique charms. For starters, it had barely been touched since it was built in 1950—a renovator’s dream. Then there was the property, more than eight acres (yes, within city limits), including a poolhouse and barn—structures now more difficult to build thanks to zoning restrictions. Stern saw an opportunity and knew a good design team could help her transform it. So she called on local architecture firm Pfeffer Torode, and the project’s lead architect, Erin Cypress, brought in interior designer Liz Bonesio to tackle the job. Over the next two years, the three concocted a plan to fill the ranch with color and personality, and bring the light of day into its darker recesses.
