A unique trend that has recently breached the surface in California housing designs are the addition of basements to add square footage without running into issues with the anti-mansionization ordinance. Since the basement space would be exempt, this allows many homeowners to add square footage and new buyers seem to be expecting it. Now, I don’t mean a dark basement where you plan to house boxes of photo albums, but luxury living space–they are fully integrated into the living spaces above. Some of these luxury basements include theaters, bars, wine rooms, gyms, or even guest space. Whatever you can think of, I’m quite sure someone is doing it, or trying to figure out how to.
