Basements secrets

A basement is always a secret gem of your house. It could be a nightmare and affect the price when you sell. Or the basement could be an important part of the whole living space and drive the price higher.

If it's too cold and damp, or has a bad layout you still can turn it into an important part of your living space. Proper insulation makes your basement warmer and cozier. 

With framing and drywall you could build a laundry, a mancave, a boudoir, kids' playroom, or even home theater. Or you could make an extra bedroom with a bathroom and let your teenager move there and start learning about independent living. 

A finished basement is always an important feature if you decide to sell the property. But even on a low budget you still could get some improvement. You can do some of it by yourself with little investment. Fresh paint and even, bright lighting will give you space some personality. You could make a very organized storage room, home gym, art studio for kids or craft cabinet for yourself.
