[quote=Anonymous]Most of the renovated and flipped houses we looked at this spring had wet bars.  It wasn't really a selling feature.. but it was a nice touch.  We definitely preferred the ones with a regular mini fridge as opposed to a wine fridge.  We have the same idea of the space being a playroom/hang out room for kids.  We liked the added cabinet storage.. and liked the idea of having a place to put out snacks for the kids.  I was thinking that the above the counter storage cabinets would be perfect for things like fine china and fancy dishes we only use at holiday time.

We also liked having the sink.  A friend of mine suggested using lower cabinets for craft/school supply storage for the kids.  Since we figured eventually we might put a table/desk down there for them. Also, if we did crafts downstairs and they have messy hands from painting or whatever they would have a sink right there to use.

Again, I don't think its necessary and if it costs a fortune I don't think it really adds a significant value to a future buyer... BUT.. I do think you will use it more than you think.  Too much storage never seems to be an issue.[/quote]
