2. The Vyne | Archmosphere-ds

Renovation Cost: RM80,000

To create an aesthetically pleasing home without spending a fortune, pay attention to the small details that would complement your existing furniture well. Home decor such as artworks, vases, cushions, trays, candles and others are not just for display, but it can also freshen up a space, give an updated feel to older furniture and even cover some flaws on pieces that have seen better days.

The design of your home plays a role in your renovation cost as well. A home with a minimalistic design is likely to be more affordable to renovate than a home that is intended to exude a sense of opulence.

5. Damai Hillpark Residence | Considered Design

Renovation Cost: RM65,000

Many people love the idea of completely changing the layout of their home, but they don't like the price that comes with it. Structural changes such as relocating sinks, bathtubs, stoves, walls and windows can easily add up to your overall budget. So instead of changing your home’s floor plan, try updating your home’s fixtures and furniture to breathe new life into your home.
