A basement is unnecessary and costs 50-60k. It's just where junk ends up that gets disposed of after 20 years and that one thinks they might use somehow once. 2 children, etw, garden shed (10 sqm) and external storage room (8 sqm). Everything that has to go away is on eBay Classifieds. Parents have XXL garage/basement. They have to post 10 ads every few weeks because they found some unique item again
The lack of ability to keep things tidy is of course an extraordinarily good argument against a basement. I think then one would make a mess even without a basement.
Our storage room is in the basement, the smallest room with 9 sqm, and is still relatively empty. Everything that we maybe need 1-2 times a year ends up there. I don't like it when the drawers in the living room or kitchen are completely full.
The space issue is a good argument - but especially the gardening enthusiast will not want to do without a garden hut or ground-level access to gardening tools. Something bigger, protected against moisture and made frost-free, and you immediately have a small workshop...
Gardening tools have no place in my workshop either. For that, a tool room of about 15 sqm comes under the carport.
