Hidden Feature: The Room Divider

So the owners took the love seat upstairs & I immediately remembered another feature we have in the basement apartment. The room divider! We couldn't use it at first because the love seat was blocking it. I really like the fact that we can use it now...I'm not sure if I want to bring in our other couch from storage. : \ Reign wants to bring it in though...It does make sense though. It's the last big piece of furniture we haven't sold yet. We wouldn't need the storage space anymore if we brought the couch in. Meaning no more monthly storage payments.... I like having that extra space and I like the room divider though.....


By the way, they still haven't sold the pool table yet...

3 Reasons Why We Like Our New Basement Apartment

A month ago, Reign (the hubs) and I moved from our spacious 2 bedroom/1 den apartment to a smaller 1 bedroom basement apartment. I really miss our old apartment....We were there for 2 years so it holds a lot of memories for us. We're currently saving money for a home and moving basically chopped our rent in half. :-) I really didn't want to consider basement apartments because I didn't like the idea of living under someone. We've been living on our own for years now and I like the freedom of having my own living space you know?

We looked at some "not-cute" basement apartments before settling on this one. One in particular looked like it hadn't been renovated in 40 years. I swear the wall paper reminded me of the old tv show, "Mama's Family."

Anyway, the new place looks great. We're getting used to it....There are some modern features here that we've never had in a place and some nice additions to renting out a basement.


Here's my favorite feature.


I'm loving this recessed lighting.... just loving it. I hope we're able to get this in our new home.

And here's Reign's favorite feature.

It's the homeowner's pool table, but it's basically ours for now....haha.



And here's the feature we both like. :D

Maybe basement apartments aren't so bad after all...
