Here are a few examples of modern sidewalks. I think that I would replace, stain or cover the entry sidewalk with large rectangles of concrete or stone. I would also replace the door with a more modern door. Perhaps you could just paint the door that you have but definately remove the storm door or replace it. Paint the trim & facia a charcoal color would be nice. I think in the entryway I would cover the brick with a horizontal wood plank stained in a rich color and replace the light fixture. Upgrade landscaping by putting matching tall simple pots.

eermei, I've never seen a set of accordion doors that didn't have a bottom track. Could you post pictures of the ones you have seen so I can do some research and become more informed? I guess for an interior only door that it would be possible, but the bottom track is part of the security and weather tightness of an exterior door?

Depend on what you prefer. Do you want to "hide" the kitchen when you have guest or dun want to aircon the kitchen area when you switch on your airconditioning in the living room? Because you have a L-shape ledge near the door, I think the best option would be sliding door, either glass or wood type. If you are into country, then a barn door design may be good too.

Hi EJ, I'm not going to be of much help, but I believe the obvious sources of reclaimed wood would be demolition and removal specialists in Singapore? At least that's how I know how antique dealers source vintage tiles in Singapore. Chatting with reclaimed wood furniture specialists like Journey East (https://www.houzz.com.sg/pro/journeyeast) might help too. And its true shipping costs from overseas would be prohibitive. Malaysia has always been this country's hinterland for raw material, and Indonesia has also played the part of being a significant sourcing ground for furniture makers in the region. You might want to (or have already) make sourcing trips to Central Java or Bali where costs might even be significantly lower than finding these pieces in Singapore.
