Hello,

this is my first post, and I hope I won’t get criticized for this "silly" question here.

I bought a plot of land this year (950 m² (10,225 sq ft)) and plan to build a nice house on it in 2015. Not a prefab house, but one designed by the architect who also built my company’s building.

I have a girlfriend with 3 kids, so we need space… and I would like a large living room and a nice bathroom as well. It should have a hip roof, a bit of a Mediterranean style, and two stories.

I know these details are VERY limited, and I already have an appointment with the architect, but he is very busy and will get back to me when he has time (it’s not urgent anyway, there are still about 2 good years). But maybe someone can give me a rough idea of how much a house like this would cost! Excluding landscaping and exterior work...

Here are the facts / wishes:

about 300 m² (3,230 sq ft)
custom designed
high-end finishes for sure
nice / luxurious bathroom
hip roof
double garage

Thank you very much, I’m happy to answer any further questions.

Regards,
Armin

Because impractical ideas and dream houses simply don’t get built. 😎

And today I actually received an email saying that someone replied to my topic... and it’s true, I have to apologize, I haven’t written anything more, which is really not like me, but back then I was still quite new and just wanted some general information.

But now I’m catching up on it...

So, the house is built, everything was much, much more expensive, but it’s also bigger. The architect did a great job. I’ll share some pictures if anyone is interested, but I still need to get them from my partner.

Details:

House over 400m² (4,300 sq ft)
Costs... I can’t say exactly anymore, the house itself maybe 1.2 million plus interior and landscaping, so estimated around 1.5 million.

That’s about my planning... oh man...

Best regards and talk soon,

Armin

It's great that the budget can be adjusted to match the dreams. Unfortunately, this is very rare. Please share some pictures.

I’m reluctant to take back my #19 😎
But I’m happy to take it back for lots of information, pictures, and a detailed experience report :p

So....

the building process went really well, the architect handled almost everything, and we stayed pretty relaxed—we're not very picky! Of course, we chose the interior finishes and details that we liked and that fit, but the house isn’t a “masterpiece” or a shrine; it’s a nice house, and that’s it. Happy to answer any questions... :-)

Best regards,

Armin
