Project Spotlight: Basement in Clifton
BASEMENT REMODEL
CLIFTON, VA
These homeowners wanted a functional space for spending time with their children, entertaining friends, and sharing with house guests.
By creating separate speciality areas using creative design, they gained a gaming area, a lounge area with a web bar for entertaining, a wine cellar, a bedroom + bathroom enhancement for guests, a new powder room, and a gym!
Here’s a snapshot of their remodel:

An intimate gathering area was created for hosting guests, complete with a double-sided stone fireplace for warmth and ambiance.

The wine cellar includes custom tile work and lighting wired for an IOS app which permits color lighting changes and a phone accessible door lock.

A powder room was added (left) for easy access to the rear pool, and the guest bathroom (right) was updated with marble circles and complimentary tile.

A small gym oasis with a sauna replaced one of the utility rooms, giving the matriarch a private place to retreat for yoga and relaxation.

I remember my childhood home. A typical split-foyer found in almost any Northern Virginia neighborhood built between the 50s and 80s.
