It’ll open up in private

A wooden privacy wall and accent siding pop against the charcoal-hued exterior of this remodeled and expanded Studio City house, giving it a contemporary twist on the outside.

Beyond a pivoting 5-foot-wide front door, the home’s living spaces belie the subdued exterior. Custom fixtures and high ceilings keep the open-space interior light and bright throughout. Fleetwood pocket doors open to a revamped backyard for indoor-outdoor living.
