Many homes contain unfinished spaces in a basement or attic can be transformed into wonderful finished living spaces for far less than it might cost to build a major addition.

Attic and basement space can be used to create additional bedrooms and bathrooms for a growing family, a comfortable recreation room or home theater for an active, mature family-or even a private mini-apartment to meet the needs of a new trend: aging parents moving in with their children, or grown children moving back home with their parents.
