This full basement renovation included adding a mudroom area, media room, a bedroom, a full bathroom, a game room, a kitchen, a gym and a beautiful custom wine cellar. Our clients are a family that is growing, and with a new baby, they wanted a comfortable place for family to stay when they visited, as well as space to spend time themselves. They also wanted an area that was easy to access from the pool for entertaining, grabbing snacks and using a new full pool bath.We never treat a basement as a second-class area of the house. Wood beams, customized details, moldings, built-ins, beadboard and wainscoting give the lower level main-floor style. There’s just as much custom millwork as you’d see in the formal spaces upstairs. We’re especially proud of the wine cellar, the media built-ins, the customized details on the island, the custom cubbies in the mudroom and the relaxing flow throughout the entire space.

This traditional basement creates a warm and inviting feeling. With plenty of space to entertain and keep warm, you are sure to relax and have fun in this space. ©Finished Basement Company

An old dark farmhouse basement gets a facelift with smooth plaster walls and ceiling. Plenty of recessed and accent lighting keeps the space bright. 12 vintage prints from Hawaii were framed and grouped as a statement wall. Simple cotton duck cloth covers the sofa and ottoman. Ceramic "wood" plank floor tile keeps the space kid and dog paw friendly! The wall color is Upper West Side by Benjamin Moore Color Stories Collection. CSP-70.
