[quote=Anonymous]We did dig out and found it was worth it when we finished it as an au-pair suite. She gets some privacy as she's two floors away from the rest of the bedrooms and has her own bathroom. A couple of things to think about if you do move forward are what you might use the space for in the future. If a bedroom, make sure you either have a walkout basement or egress window so the future bedroom is up to code. If you want to add a bath, you'd save money by doing the rough in plumbing work now. You already mentioned that you'd dig down enough to get a higher ceiling, so think about where the steps down from the existing basement should go. [/quote]
