A studio is a one-room apartment that combines the bedroom, living room and kitchen/kitchenette into one open space. A studio apartment has a separate bathroom and often a separate closet. Although most studio apartment areas do not include any walls or partitions separating each room, there is space for a bed, living area and kitchen. Studio apartments within a rental property or apartment community may also include a patio or balcony, smart home features, and access to on-site amenities, like a pool and fitness center.
