How do you turn a 1970s tract house into a sophisticated family oasis? Simple. Start by pulling out the clumsy brick fireplaces and the old, tired kitchen to open up the space. Then bring in a new entry, powder room, bar, and a chef's kitchen. Top it off with a new linear fireplace and an outdoor lounge, and you've got yourself true California living at it's best. Easy and carefree. Time for a cocktail on the patio, don't you think?
