Hi,

My partner and I are currently looking to buy a site in Galway, within comuting distance of Galway city. We had set a limit of 150K on site but it seems that the average is 250-300K.

We would like to build an average size house, not too small not too big, maybe arount 1800 square feet.

Cauld anyone who has built a house or is building give me an estimate of how much it sould cost to buld a house of this size.

Thanks!!
 
Hi brokeagain,

Rough general costs are from €75 to €130 /SQFT depending on the finish and quality of your building. Builders finish €85/sqft @ 1800sqft = €153,000. Finishes and decoration after that depending on yourself €40k total estimate €193,000. Check my blog may help

Jolly man, had a look at your blog and found it very useful indeed! Its well structured and easy to navigate. I'm starting a new build on my own site shortly and will refer to this regularly. Keep it going. Well done.
 
Jollyman, that is an excellent blog!

I have trawled the web trying to find info like that but up to now I could only find quotes from developers.

Thanks fir your hard work:)
