3 Ways to Use the Space Under Home Staircases in Lexington, Kentucky (KY) like Extra Storage

That area under your home’s staircase can be a challenge to deal with. It is such an odd shape that it can be hard to decide how to use it. Plus, it is such a large area of space, you don’t want to waste it. We are here to offer you 3 ways to use the space under home staircases in Lexington, Kentucky.

Depending on the size of the space, you can turn it into a number of different things. One option if it isn’t big enough to put in a small office or bathroom is a bookcase. A bookcase is the perfect addition to any home that allows you to avoid having to have additional furniture that isn’t necessary. Why clutter your space with giant bookshelves when you have this great space under your stairs? You could even install some drawers for additional storage.

If you have children, the space under your staircase is the perfect place to install a play area for your children. Whether this means just a simple extra playroom with fun toys and things for your kids to do or an actual playhouse, there are so many ways to take advantage of this space for your kids. What makes this a great choice is if your staircase is near a common area that you might spend a lot of time in. You can hang out in those spaces while your children play in their new playroom. This makes for the perfect family entertainment space.

The space under a staircase is also the perfect place for storage for just about anything. If you need a storage space for your bikes or need an extra closet, this is the perfect place for it. A great idea for any home is to install slide out cabinets. These are great for storing linens in an easily accessible way. No more stressing about your linen closet not having enough room. Under the stairs is the perfect home for linens.
