High-End Home Gym

Working out doesn’t have to be drudgery, nor do you have to haul yourself to the gym every day. Instead, cancel your gym membership and work out closer to home--in your own luxurious basement gym!

  • Install your favorite workout equipment, such as treadmills, stationary bikes, and weight machines. Mirrored walls will help you maintain good form while lifting weights and practicing yoga poses.
  • A widescreen television is a must to entertain you and your workout partners during those long runs or stationary bike rides.
  • Create a warm and welcoming stretching and meditation space for low-key days or cool-downs with plenty of yoga mats, large pillows, and dimmable lighting.
  • A water cooler and “cleaning station” for keeping mats and machines germ-free are both perfect additions to your workout space.

Winsome Wine Cellar

  • Ensure that your basement has proper insulation from the get-go.
  • Install a wine-cooling unit to chill your bottles of white, champagne, and rose!
  • Choose the style of lighting that works for you. LED lighting emits virtually no heat, thus preserving your delicate bottles as they ripen with age.
  • Shelving is key, and there are many options when it comes to housing your wine. From built-in shelves to do-it-yourself kits, it all depends on what suits your taste and needs.
  • Roll-out bins give a vintage, European chateau feel while also conveniently protecting and storing your wine.
