Converted half the basement into my space. Got the old leather couch down there now, a mini fridge, dartboard, sound system. Put in some work to paint and get it looking decent. Wife said it actually looks good down there which surprised me. Planning to watch the playoffs here and have the guys over for poker night next month. Finally have somewhere to be a dad off duty.
The leather couch down there is clutch. Mini fridge makes it official. You got a TV set up too or just keeping it chill?
A man cave is essential for sanity. I've got my workshop setup in the garage but I'm jealous of your leather couch and mini fridge combo. That's the dream right there.
Just make sure the wife gets to use it sometimes too or you might hear about it. Not saying from experience or anything.
That's the dream right there. I've been eyeing the basement too but my wife keeps reminding me it floods when it rains. How'd you convince yours to let you take up half the space?
Man, this is exactly what I need. Three kids and nowhere to decompress. How hard was moving the couch down there? That thing's gotta be heavy.

Half the basement is perfect because you're still close enough to help with dad duties but far enough away to decompress. Smart move.
