Here are some Great Ideas for Your Basement Remodel!
Basements often earn a bad reputation. They are known as damp and uninviting – not really a place you would want to spend your time. Even if it’s currently cold concrete and crammed with boxes of off-season boxes of Christmas decorations, the lowest floor of your home probably has loads of potential. Treat it just as you would any of the rooms aboveground, and it might just become the most popular spot in the house, for a lot less cash than adding on. Look at your basement as an advantage! It can be turned into anything you want it to be.
Busy Bathrooms
For larger families, there can almost be a line for the bathroom at times. This is where a basement remodel would be ideal. Adding a bathroom to your basement is a practical and ideal way to update and refresh this part of your home. It doesn’t need to be a full 4-piece bathroom with tub, shower, sink and toilet either. Instead, you could create a smaller powder room with just a toilet and sink. If you plan to create an extra bedroom in your basement, then you may want to consider adding a 3-piece bathroom with a toilet, sink, and shower. That way if your guests or family need to use your bathroom every time they want to take a shower, they have the use of their own. It just makes everyone’s life a little easier.
A Cozy Den
One of the best ways to make a basement cozy, is by designing it into a den. Think a cozy couch, comfortable armchairs, and plenty of blankets and pillows. Before you can focus on choosing armchairs, blankets, or pillows, you need to make sure your basement is fully renovated. After all, sitting in a room with exposed concrete and un-insulated walls is not very cozy or relaxing at all. Once you have taken the care of updating and insulating your basement, you could even install a fireplace- that way you and your loved ones can all gather around the fire on a chilly winter’s night. For more modern comfort, consider adding electronics as well, so that you and your family can relax together in the evening and catch up on your favorite shows or movies.
