6 high-end looks for under $60,000

A more expensive home probably enjoys a better location and amenities, but costlier renovation does not necessarily mean better interior design. With a good interior designer, some creativity and an open mind, you can do up a stunning home for under $60,000.

Not convinced? Here are six notable condominiums that have done it without breaking the bank.

The homeowners achieved a back-to-nature feel by keeping the home minimalistic with earthy tones and raw touches. It could have easily become lifeless and uninspiring, if not for the modern art décor against the simple yet classic wallpaper. What they wound up with was a homely space that’s stylish and interesting.

The industrial theme is all the rage right now. Instead of steering away from it, make it your own by injecting some unexpected elements. This homeowner did just that by turning one of the bedrooms into an open-concept music room through the use of glass panels,as well as vintage wall tiles in the master bedroom.

What a way to make a striking first impression. This condo’s stained plywood ceiling feature is truly one of a kind, and helps to elongate the entrance walkway. The homeowners also chose a mix of dark and light finishing to develop a bright and warm living environment.

The Scandinavian style usually does best in a spacious home, due to its bright, airy characteristics. The homeowners have stayed true to the theme in the living and dining area, the light colours giving it a refreshing look and the clean lines maximizing its space.

This industrial home is bursting with character. It’s hard to take life too seriously when you are surrounded by fun and quirky décor. The homeowners showcased their creativity in many of their decorative elements, such as the bicycle wheel suspended from a hanging ceiling light, and touches of red amid an otherwise monochromatic colour scheme.

It’s not easy to find new homes that adopt a traditional style these days. But this one has set a good example by going traditional with taste and poise. We especially like how the space is elevated with the richness of quality wood and beautiful art pieces.

Where are buyers searching

As part of plans to keep our readers better informed of what’s ‘hot’ in the property market, we provide an update of the most searched properties from the PropertyGuru website in the past week, as well as popular buying locations in Singapore.

The most searched private condominium project was The Interlace, which overtakes Sky Habitat which had topped the list previously for two weeks straight. The 99-year leasehold condo at Depot Road in District 3 is already completed. A Credit Suisse report in May noted that seven apartments were sold at the project in Q1 2015, but there are still 162 unsold units.

The 480-unit Westwood Residences at Jurong West in District 22 remains as the top searched executive condominium (EC) for sale. The project’s popularity could be attributed to its bicycle theme, which differentiates it from other condos and ECs.

The Jurong area has also been attracting a lot of attention with recent news of positive developments such as the future Singapore-Kuala Lumpur high speed rail terminus being built on the current site of Jurong Country Club.

Meanwhile, Sengkang (D19) is still the most searched HDB estate for sale and is now considered a self-contained estate. Residents are within walking distance to several shopping malls and neighbourhood schools.

Happy house hunting!
