Suwanee Real Estate: Homes With Finished Basements

Five homes in Suwanee with full, finished terrace levels

One of the most common features a potential buyer looks for in a home is a finished basement. Having this additional living space can drastically increase a property’s appeal and resale value. The terrace level of a home is versatile space that often includes a media room, guest bedroom and bath, a home office and/or storage that otherwise the home would be without. 

Of the over 285 homes on the market in Suwanee, 107 have a finished basement.  This week, House Hunt takes a close look at five examples ranging from around $350,000 to just under $200,000.
