Basically it's a half finished space that spans the entire legth of the house. Its probably over 1800 square feet. I put in a nice quality carpet and spent a lot of money on a french drain system outside which has made the basement dry even in the worst rain! The ceiling and walla are left unfinished.
Here is a fun DIY project I just finished in the basement.
I made a glass "chandelier" out of wine bottles which I hung around the pull chain lights. I just used a macrame ring, old bottles, corks and copper wire.
