How we arrive at these numbers
Typical 2BHK carpet areas in Chennai range from about 650 to 1200 sq ft. Homes of 1200 sq ft and above use our larger rate card.
Bedrooms (wardrobes, beds and side units) are usually the largest single line in a 2BHK because there are 2 of them, followed by the modular kitchen.
Compact homes get the most value from lofts, sliding wardrobes and a multi-use second bedroom.
2BHK homes are most common in Velachery, OMR, Sholinganallur, T Nagar, where we see steady demand for this configuration.
The second bedroom is the swing room: kids' room today, study or guest room tomorrow. Designing it to change use easily, for example with a wardrobe, a fold-out desk and a sofa-cum-bed, gives a 2BHK much more life.
Estimates cover design, modular carpentry, installation and a 12-year woodwork warranty. Civil, electrical, painting, appliances and countertops are usually quoted separately. See full inclusions & specifications

Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Prioritise the kitchen and master wardrobe
These are used every day and are hardest to change later. If budget is tight, finish these first and add living-room units in a second phase.
- 02
Make the second bedroom flexible
A study-cum-guest setup with a wardrobe and fold-out desk gets far more use than a single-purpose room.
- 03
Choose sliding wardrobes only where they fit
Sliding shutters save swing space but need enough width to be useful. In narrow rooms, hinged shutters are often more practical and easier to maintain.
- 04
Plan the TV unit with the electrical layout
Decide TV size, set-top box and soundbar positions before the electrician finalises points; it avoids exposed wires later.
- 05
Keep a utility-area plan
A tall unit near the washing machine for cleaning supplies keeps the kitchen and balcony clutter-free.

No. They are approximate ranges based on Elixir's current rate card (updated 2026-10-28). The final price depends on actual measurements, layout, finishes, hardware and site conditions, so we always recommend a free consultation with one of our designers before you set your budget.
Is the Premium package the right choice?
Premium sits at roughly ₹2.5L – ₹4.7L for this home. Many homeowners mix packages, for example a premium kitchen with standard bedroom finishes. A designer can show you samples of each finish so you can decide in person.
