For most people, the basement is a place where they store old things they no longer need or even remember they have. However, this space has so much potential to add value and comfort to your home. Imagine having an additional living space complete with a full bathroom, wine cellar, wet bar, gym and even a bedroom. Exciting, right?
First and foremost, let us discuss the must-have features that make up a luxurious basement.
A full bathroom with a stall shower, glass enclosure, tiled flooring, and surround with custom niches to store your toiletries create a spa-like experience to enjoy at any time of the day.
A wine cellar with custom glass doors, climate control, and lock feature is not only a fantastic way to store your wine collection but also adds a sense of sophistication to your space. It makes it the ideal spot to unwind with a glass of your favorite wine after a long day or entertain a guest over a bottle of champagne.
Having a wet bar in your finished basement is another fantastic way to create a relaxed social atmosphere. Adding a granite countertop and in house designed cabinets with built-in appliances such as a dishwasher, refrigerator, and sink make it the perfect place for entertainment. You can host game nights or invite friends over for some drinks without interrupting your day-to-day activities on the main floor.
The current times have made it necessary to find alternative ways to stay active. Creating a gym in your finished basement would be a fantastic idea. A mirrored wall, rubber flooring designed for gym equipment, and custom storage for exercise equipment such as yoga-mats or weights would complete this wonderful and convenient feature.
Finally, creating an additional bedroom in your finished basement is an excellent idea for guests or a growing family. Furnish it with a comfortable bed, nightstands, and a dresser. A walk-in closet with custom-designed shelving is also a fantastic feature to consider. This closet can function as additional storage space for off-season items like winter jackets, summer shoes, and other things that would otherwise clutter up your primary closet.
Your basement does not have to be a mere storage space full of old items. Transforming your unfinished basement into a luxurious living space can be a great investment and a way to add value to your home. Whether you are creating a space for relaxation, entertainment, or a home gym, the possibilities are endless.
