3BHK interior cost in Kodambakkam
Three-bedroom homes in Kodambakkam are fewer than 2BHKs and are often bought by families who need a room each for parents, children and a study or guest. With carpet areas of roughly 1,200 to 1,550 sq ft, the interior cost here depends mainly on how each bedroom is used and how much detailing goes into the shared living and dining space.

Planning interiors in Kodambakkam
A well-connected, mid-density neighbourhood known for its film industry links, mixing older apartments with newer mid-rise projects.
- 3BHKs in the newer mid-rise buildings often have a smaller third bedroom that works better as a study, puja-cum-guest room or creative workspace than as a full bedroom.
- Families moving from older Kodambakkam flats into a 3BHK often bring a sofa set or dining table, which can reduce loose furniture costs if the design is planned around them.
- Because living and dining are usually one connected space here, matching wood tones and lighting across both rooms has a bigger visual effect than spending on separate feature walls.
- Three wardrobes plus lofts is often the single largest line in a Kodambakkam 3BHK estimate, so choosing internal accessories carefully keeps the total in check.
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
Assign each bedroom a role early
Decide who uses which room and what they store before design starts. A child's room and a parents' room need different wardrobe interiors and different surfaces.
- 02
Consider the third room as a workspace
For professionals who edit, record or draw at home, the third bedroom can take acoustic panels and a long desk. Plan its electrical points before ceiling work.
- 03
Budget the wardrobes as a group
Three wardrobes and lofts can be designed together with shared modules. This keeps costs lower than designing each one as a custom piece.
- 04
Plan laundry and linen space
3BHK families generate more linen. A tall unit in the utility or a linen loft in the passage avoids overloading bedroom wardrobes.
- 05
Light the dining table separately
A pendant or focused spot over the dining table defines it within a shared living space. It is an inexpensive way to give the room structure.

FAQ
Common cost questions
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Is the third bedroom always fitted with a wardrobe?
Not necessarily. Many Kodambakkam families use it as a study or guest room with a smaller storage unit. Leaving out a full wardrobe there can bring the estimate down noticeably.
What is the approximate Premium cost for a 3BHK here?
For a typical 3BHK of about 1,375 sq ft, Premium is approximately ₹3.8L – ₹7L before GST. The final number depends on finishes, ceiling area, wardrobe count and site condition.
Can I use different finishes in each bedroom?
Yes. Children's rooms often use matte, scratch-resistant laminates while the master bedroom may get a textured or wood-grain finish. The designer will keep the overall palette consistent.
How do I keep a 3BHK within the Basic range?
Limit the false ceiling to the living area, choose standard module sizes and avoid specialty finishes. Spend on reliable hardware in daily-use cabinets rather than on decorative extras.
Do you design the puja space too?
Yes. A compact puja unit in the living area or a corner of the third bedroom is a common request. Ventilation for lamps and safe lighting are planned along with it.
