what we have today

Here's what we have now.
Front, and right wall, with window

This is what was behind the wall, with the door.

framed stairs

Looking down

Basement Renovation time!

Before we pulled the carpet up-bottom of stairs
Seems to never end. We decided with the interest rates so low, now was the best time to pull some equity out of the house, and pay off everything. Oh yeah, and update our basement.

Back wall
The basement was really never a great place to hang out. Sorta cold, and I always felt as though I was gonna fall down the stairs! They were very steep. The lack of a bathroom made it all the less appealing, having to go up 2 flights of steps when nature called.

Utility area. Toilet in the room to the right

Slop sink

Crappy little windows
Front wall

Front and right wall, shows window
So, for a refresher, here's what we had. Well, sorry. We had already started dismantling before we took pictures, but you get the point.
