Part 7/10:
Venturing into the basement, Andrew confronted what he described as a "downright scary" foundation filled with remnants of its neglected past. He rolled up his sleeves, redoing the stairs on a tight budget while also addressing a prior water leak problem with added interior drain tiles. The basement has since been transformed into a functional living area, complete with a cozy sectional, a faux concrete accent wall, and a full bathroom—although Andrew notes that the low ceiling can be a minor inconvenience for taller folks.
