While basements get a bad rap at
times, if built finished out or remodeled later on, they actually offer
a wealth of extra living space for many purposes and activities. For
instance, a media room, living room, wine cellar, wet bar, gym, office,
playroom, man's cave, laundry and guest room are all popular choices for
basement spaces. If you are lucky enough to live in an area where
