Lower Level Remodel
Eagan, Minnesota

The Challenge: The unfinished basement of this home
was nothing more than an outgrown hockey play area.
The owners longed for a sophisticated setting to entertain
and relax.

Our Solution: Welcome to the local pub and theater!
Inspired by the warmth of traditional pub styling, what
was once a dreary unfinished space has been gorgeously
transformed into a multi-purpose entertainment level.
The cozy pub area is highlighted by stonework and rustic
cherry cabinetry for storage, display and bar seating, all
adjacent to a spacious game room. The stonework is
repeated in the theater area, dramatically defined with
crown molding and indirect lighting. A luxurious bathroom,
zoned temperature systems, new Marvin windows
and more create a welcoming at-home escape for family
and friends.

Lower Level Remodel
Sun Fish Lake, Minnesota

The Challenge: A standard unfinished basement,
complicated by a chimney chase damaged due to exterior
water issues. The owners’ goal was a space for family and
grandchildren to gather.

Our Solution: After solving the exterior water problems
we repaired the chimney chase, then raised the basement
stairway to create more room at the bottom. Two separate
game areas invite everyone to have fun competing. Then
they can relax around the stone fireplace in the comfortable
hearth area with a complete kitchen and bar for convenient
entertaining. A sauna in the new bathroom offers another
option for relaxing, too. Thoughtful details include granite
countertops, surround-sound system and built-in storage.
The result is a lower level that lives as wonderfully as the
rest of the home.
