WARRENTON, VIRGINIA

Entertainment Zone Basement Remodel

Remodel of an outdated 1990’s basement to an entertainer's playland with a separate wine and liquor bar, game area, and lounge for relaxation.  These homeowners wanted to enjoy a light, bright, and inviting space with their family and friends.  

We incorporated several “zones” for entertaining their guests, like a game area with a pool table, pinball machines, and arcade games. For the owner's impressive liquor collection, we incorporated a wine bar with a tasting area, a full liquor bar with under-counter refrigerators, a dishwasher, an ice machine, and a display area.

We removed the paneling from the walls and ceiling and installed a durable and light-colored Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) on the floor.  We added ambient recessed light and task-specific decorative lighting at the bars and pool table.

  • Conversation area at the new electric fireplace
  • Built-in storage around the large TV
  • Custom “floating” bar top behind the sofa for additional TV viewing
