Take a look at this ‘luxury palace’ created after a woman paid £20,000 transforming her rented council house. Self-confessed interior design addict Danielle Leigh, 26, bought furniture from Home Bargains, B&M and supermarket homeware sections to give her council home a ‘hotel’ feel. She reckons she’s spent at least £40k less than she would on high-end designer gear. Danielle, from Teesside, lives in a two-storey, three bedroom home. The project has taken her three years. The carer has torn down her kitchen to make way for a new, ‘traditionally-styled’ cooking area.
