So as the title says, the wife and I are buying a new home and I will have the privilege of a full finished basement, looks as if it was a "mother in law" suite before as it has a bathroom, full kitchen and such, all to my self for a "man cave"
3 of the rooms will be my main focus, the living room, the kitchen and the smaller, less finished "work room" that has shop benches and concrete floor, unfished walls and such.
I have considered either converting the kitchen into a reloading room and using the already installed cabinets and counter tops as my bench/shelving.
I also considered using the "work room" as a reloading and gun maintenance room and converting the kitchen into a bar of sorts with glass cabinet doors and such.
The livingroom portion obviously will be mainly gun memorabilia and hunting/fishing décor with my guitar and nascar stuff added in.
My question is, before I start making big changes, what would you guys suggest for the best use of all this newly acquired space for my hobbies?
What I don't want to do is jump in head first and get done or partially done and have regrets as to how I should have done it another way.
PS ( I can already feel the envy )
Edited to add pics of the kitchen and the living room. Didn’t have one of the “workroom”. The current furniture will be gone.
