The Basement mod will allow you to update your home by adding a basement. Why are basements needed? That's right - store any unnecessary junk there that you don't want to throw away. You can store up to 80 items there! And food (as in a refrigerator), by the way, too, if you turn on the appropriate setting.

To craft it, you need 60 boards, 45 stones, 4 branches and 1 gold nugget. Yes, creating 9 chests may be easier, but the convenience is worth paying extra for.
