This home tour is presented by Tuckernuck, a brand both Kate and I adore — and now even more because they offer the same quality and style for the home! You can shop our exact looks and Kate’s fabulous fall tablescape directly in this post.
Interior designer Kate Figler graciously welcomed us into her 1945 Nashville home — designed by beloved architect Edwin Keeble — for a picture-perfect tour. If you think the outside is charming, just wait until you explore the interiors.
The house color is Benjamin Moore Soft Chamois OC-13 and the shutters are a true black like Benjamin Moore Black 2132-10. The roof existed before Kate made the home her own, but its similar to GAF’s Charcoal color for its asphalt shingle lines.
“I love its classic Cape style exterior as well as the charm of its interior architectural details like the curved entry staircase and the low archway leading into our powder bath,” Kate says of her stylish home.
Let’s step inside that iconic entryway, painted in Benjamin Moore Tissue Pink 1163. The powder room was like a secret hideaway dressed in Scalamandre Raphael Green wallpaper.
Original charm is abundant, and Kate’s designer eye is showcased in every room. From the original curved staircase to the Dutch door in the dining room, it’s easy to get lost in this enchanting and large family home.
This family den is painted in Benjamin Moore Van Deusen Blue HC-156.
I really admire Kate’s ability to work with a lot of color, texture and pattern while keeping the space feeling timeless and edited. This living space for example, features a durable textured rug, a deep cozy sectional and fun botanical prints. “The color palette throughout our home also feels very joyful and like a true expression of our family. Every room is bright, comfortable and approachable — all our furniture is meant to be cuddled up on and lived in,” Kate says.
One of my favorite rooms in the house is the dining room. Can you imagine the dinner parties? Swoon.
The walls are covered a beautiful purple wallpaper by House of Harris. I love how the Tuckernuck fall home finds pull in some of those plums, purples and browns. The florals are grounded with tortoise tumblers and rattan placemats. The chairs keep the room comfortable.
The kitchen has the most gorgeous wall of windows, making the space feel bright and open. The runner really ties in the color you see throughout the rest of the home. The kitchen walls and cabinets are painted in one of our all-time favorite, classic paint colors: Benjamin Moore White Dove OC-17.
These pantry doors come with the most precious story. The previous homeowners marked their kids’ heights on the original pantry and asked to keep them. Kate had these new doors made and went with a purple fabric to tie in the happy hue from the rest of her house.
Kate’s layering skills are on full displace in the bedrooms. The canopy over the bed totally transforms the room.
Each corner of Kate’s home is so well thought out. There’s a careful balance between comfort and style that makes it an ideal Garden & Grace home tour.
To maximize utility for their family home, Kate recently added a walkway, drop zone and a garage with guest quarters above. I love this solution for older homes that sometimes lack the storage family’s today crave. While this space is still in-progress, I just couldn’t help but show it! Imagine the new exterior of the walkway with boxwoods and hydrangeas. Landscaping went in shortly after my tour!
