I use sketchup, but still can't visualise and have in the past also resorted to card models, plasticine and in one memorable case building a life size mockup of a bathroom in the living room out of masking tape, chairs and blankets.
This was the kitchen....

Nice! That's probably quicker than trying to set up reasonable lighting and figure out how I broke the normals in one wall, in a program I'd never used before.
Still, I had a couple of structural walls in the way, so it helped me. You do need an expensive headset for it to work, though, unless you can view it on a smartphone.

Plot twist - this was actually done in Blender with full ray tracing & textures

My wife can actually visualize rooms, so she just drew the layouts on paper.
I can't, so I had to model the kitchen (very badly) in SteamVR to get a sense of scale.
That is free, but probably only worthwhile if you also have VR and are as spatially-challenged as me. You can still look at the 2D renders, but I'm sure there are easier ways of building those.
