Apartment transformation on a $40k budget

Apartment transformation on a $40k budget

Here are the before and afters of my 1 bed, 1 bath renovation. It wasn't entirely DIY but I did the demo, rubbish removal, plastering, painted (ceilings, walls, doors, window frames, bedroom closet, screen door... everything) and sourced materials and appliances to keep costs down. I got a builder, plumber, tiler and electrician for everything else. I achieved this result with a total budget of $40k and I've provided links to specific Bunnings products below.
