A finished basement is an asset to your home, giving you a bonus living area without a costly addition. They are also an opportunity to add a unique feature to your house that wouldn’t fit on the upper levels. After remodeling the basement, consider one of these ideas to get the most out of your new space. 

5 Ideas for a Basement After Remodeling 

1. Home Theater or Bar 

Basements are more sound proof than the upper-levels of a home, making them the perfect room to turn up the volume. Equip your basement with a small fridge, sink, and bar for an adults-only zone. You could also set up surround sound and a projector for family movie nights. 

2. Children’s Playroom 

Noise isn’t just an issue for adults. Turning your finished basement into a children’s playroom provides kids with a safe, fun environment to play and call their own. They won’t have to worry about breakables or hard surfaces on the upper levels, and you can leave the door open to keep an ear out for what’s going on. 

3. Personal Gym 

Monthly gym memberships can be expensive, and they may not have the equipment you like to use. Remove costly fees and a commute from your routine with an at-home gym. Now your workout can fit into your schedule whenever you have an extra 30 minutes. 

4. Office Space 

Working from your kitchen counter is distracting and counterproductive. Set aside space from the basement remodeling project for a home office. You will be able to work distraction-free and take conference calls without neighborhood noise. 

5. Small Apartment 

If the basement has outside access, consider creating a small apartment for extra income or aging in-laws. Remodeling the basement into a usable living space is cheaper and easier than building a room addition. Plus, you can convert the basement into something else when you no longer need an extra living area.
