The Boulder 1920's Basement Finish

Friends!

This project was so fun to watch.  The transformation was, well, incredible.  Before you look at the pictures in this post, I want you to close your eyes and imagine this basement in its before state - envision a dark basement with cement and paneled walls and no egress window.  It was the kind of basement you hope you don't get attacked by spiders in when braving it to do your laundry.  

Now, it is so lovely.  With the addition of a bedroom/sitting room and bathroom, Scott and Isidora will have a lovely guest suite for visiting family and friends. The added egress window brings in a ton of light and adds safety in case of an emergency. We reused the original doors, deep sink and Scott refinished the original windows so it retains it's 1920's charm while getting 2019 worthy upgrade of comfort and warmth (think beautiful barn doors!).

We are so pleased with how this project turned out and are grateful to know Scott and Isidora.  With every project, we feel like our little construction family grows and by the end of them can't imagine not knowing the friends we've made after spending so much time in their homes.  

Scott and Isidora have been a true pleasure to work with and were insistent on celebrating along the way with after work beers with Tom and some fancy pants whiskey after final inspection!

Our job is fun and we are grateful!

Bedroom/sitting room - notice the new egress window and the original 1920's door!

The barn doors are so pretty and really add warmth to the space!

Check out that original deep sink straight out of the 1920's! We added the new faucet and butcher block top and gave it a new stand that's burly enough to hold this concrete (literally) piece of history.

This view of the sitting room shows one of the original 1920's doors. We love that we could incorporate them!
