You might have already heard of open space layouts for kitchens. These grow in popularity each year as walls are toppled down to reveal better designs. Imagine your basement being altered to an entertainment area fused with the kids\u2019 playroom.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It\u2019s the perfect setup. The mom and dad can enjoy a movie or two while the kids play just a few feet away.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now this setup isn\u2019t for everyone, though. While open space floor plans are a hit in many interior design and house flipping shows, it\u2019s definitely not the layout for every single family there is.<\/p>\n

Add this Wesley Allen Bedroom Otsego Day Bed for your guest’s more relaxing stay in your basement guest room.<\/p><\/div>\n
Guest Room <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Another way to utilize the space underneath your home is to turn it into a guest room. People are even renting out this space for other people if they decide not to turn it into a room for their visitors.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The basement is a private zone and all you need to do to complete the remodel is to add all the amenities that guests would need.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So what are these amenities?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n First, there has to be a TV set that would keep your guest entertained; a notepad, telephone, and an alarm clock by the bedside; there must also be a wardrobe or at least a drawer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Be sure to check the temperature down there. If it\u2019s too cold, then have a heating system installed. Make sure that there\u2019s a WiFi password written somewhere.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Check the bedding to make sure that your guest will feel comfortable. Having a pair of slippers for the guest would give your guest room a hotel vibe.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A Home Theatre <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n What could be a better use for your basement than this?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The natural acoustics down there are perfect for a home theatre. All you will need to add are comfy couches (preferably sets of recliners), a large flatscreen TV, DVD player, a stellar sound system, carpeting, and shelves (for the DVDs and other collectibles that you want to display in the room).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Home theatre customization can be as high as $3,000 or more so prepare for this remodeling project.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Upgraded Storage Area <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n You may have already used this room as a storage area but who\u2019s to say that you can\u2019t improve it some more?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If the basement storage has become a complete mess, then it\u2019s time to upgrade it with these additions \u2013<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you\u2019re still having a hard time organizing the rest of your stuff, then you can always hire a professional organizer. Average cost for hiring such an expert is anywhere from $30 an hour up to $425.<\/p>\n Maitland-Smith Accessories Bar Cart, Black Eglomise Top 8101-36<\/p><\/div>\n A Stylish Bar <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The basement bar is now a popular trend, too. You can have this as a standalone room or it can be fused with the home theatre or entertainment area.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Here\u2019s a rule for home bars \u2013 be sure to store liquors that you and your friends actually like. Wine and hard drinks aren\u2019t just there as decorative items. They should be enjoyed, too.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can begin small with just vodka, gin, scotch, bourbon whiskey, rum and tequila. After keeping stock of all the right spirits, you can then shop for the bar cart (or cabinet), glasses, and other bar accessories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Did you know that there are also trends for basement design?
