Floor plan Crucial Territory
Dirty, dank, with the stench of heating oil in the air, the basement's days as a utility space are numbered. To make the economics of their purchase work, the Beliveaus will take advantage of the eight-foot four-inch ceilings, install new windows and convert this area into two bedrooms and a bath for a duplex rental unit that could bring as much as $2,500 a month. First, however, the asbestos-coated pipes will have to go.
