Party Host’s Great Basement Bar

We here at American Dreamers Renovations love basement projects –
With an existing roof, and an often empty footprint, it’s like receiving a blank canvas to paint.

For today’s blog post, we’re excited to feature this great, basement bar which is a smaller part of an 1,800 square-foot basement renovation that also includes a bedroom, a bathroom, family living space, and an exercise room.

Faced with the question of moving or renovating, these Dreamers decided they loved their neighborhood too much to relocate and that a basement renovation – which would expand their living space and deliver an entertainment area for their needs – was the solution they were looking for.

One major goal of this bar space was to deliver an area with exceptional function … not just “a space” that looked great and felt great, but an area that could be used for many to hang out and even for hiring a professional bartender for their in-home parties if they so choose.

As such, the bar was designed to seat 10:

Although this bar is for residential use, it could easily be confused as a commercial bar as well. It boasts both a customer counter and a lower bartender counter, complete with wash sink, dish washer and hidden coolers:

There is also “customer facing” cabinetry that will have space for liquor storage, pull out garbage cans and two high tower glasses front cabinets to display fine glass ware.
