Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' black-painted porch offers a modern twist on a traditional country aesthetic

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are among Hollywood's most prestigious power couples, but they spend their downtime away from the hills – on the east side of the country.

Blake (known for Gossip Girl and The Age of Adaline) and Ryan (star of Deadpool) have a notably quieter family life in the verdant town of Pound Ridge, located in Westchester County, New York.

Hidden away from New York City's urban buzz, Pound Ridge is famed as a  picturesque rural town with sprawling hills and country roads. It is a place for celebrities – including the likes of Richard Gere, Mike Myers, and Susan Sarandon – who are attracted to its charming country feel. It is perhaps only fitting, therefore, that their homes pay tribute to this aesthetic – starting with their exteriors.

In the photos below, Ryan Reynolds shares a look at the couple's back porch – and unsurprisingly, it celebrates the contemporary-country style perfectly.

Pictured on the porch – Ryan is surrounded by black and neutral tones – alongside wooden furniture – that looks to be holding DIY tools. The couple has not overloaded their space with outdoor furniture – and the pieces they do appear somewhat practical (with the exception of what looks to be a gray sofa, in the post below.

With its rustic-style wooden door and roof, the porch has an unmistakable rustic aesthetic – however – the lick of stylish black paint brings the porch firmly into the contemporary day – where black exteriors are among the best way to add value to your home.
