"Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' Modern Rustic Porch"

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' back porch in their Pound Ridge home in New York features a contemporary-country style with black and neutral tones, wooden furniture, and a rustic-style wooden door and roof. The black exterior is increasingly popular in New York and can add value to a home, according to real estate data scientist Shane Lee. Painting a house black can increase its value by $15K-$20K, and Tricone Black from Valspar is a popular color among homeowners and sellers renovating their homes for sale.
