BLACK JACK CONTRACTING CREATES A SUITE IN AN UNUSED BASEMENT .
Creating a second suite in an unused basement is a great way to bring in extra income or provide affordable housing for other family members . For these homeowners , the appeal of a second income stream was the motivation for the renovation . The space now offers two bedrooms , a full bathroom , in-suite laundry and an open concept living space that is bright and airy !
Light is an important factor when planning a basement space . For this project , installing larger windows and working with a light color palette maximizes the natural light and allows the space to feel larger and brighter .
An open kitchen with a peninsula breakfast bar makes use of every inch of space to create a unique and highly functional space . The quartz countertops were definitely a splurge but well worth it for the stunning , durable finish they provide . To keep the budget in place , the existing fireplace was worked into the design and the entire suite was outfitted with a quality Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring solution . This option is not only affordable , but also softer and warmer than tile and more moisture resistant than hardwood . - Black Jack Contracting , www . blackjackcontractinginc . com
