I like it down here, I can play music and games without worrying about waking the kids up. Plus it's a good setup for her when she works because our kids play in the basement.
I've got a mancave right across the hall in the basement as well. Basically the whole basement is for me and the kids.
When our 2nd son was born I had to move my office to the basement so we could setup that bedroom as a guest room, it's now my wife's office and guest room as she is working from home now. My desk wouldn't fit with the bed in there so I got put in the basement. I'm in a storage area that is right...
