I would suggest to check with your local laws first.Most likely you will need permit ( I guess you can get away without, obviously not suggesting that :D)) but possible) , also check your zoning.If not possible to create separate unit legally, I suggest not putting an oven in the basement, and rent it without, or live in it yourself
