Also seems you want alot of rooms in this house, 4 beds, a study, 4 living areas, a double garage, 2 bathrooms and I'd assume a dining area if you want somewhere to eat?? Definitely doable but like a lot of houses built these days most of the space will end up small and pokey, user unfriendly etc. I visited an open house just before xmas, 51 squares and the shower in the ensuite you'd bang your elbows on the walls everytime you attempted to wash your hair, ridiculous. Still if you want to proceed go for it. Price wise, for a custom build in Shep, factor in minimum $12K per square for basic finish and for high end finish around $14K-$18K per square. Really depends on design, whether standard height ceilings, single or double glazing, etc. So maybe around $450K for basic, and maybe up to $700K+ for high end.

Hi I was reading back through this and it seems you have some knowledge of the pricing in shepp here I have a question which hopefully you could roughly help me with If it’s 12k a square (as we don’t want anything flashy and high end ) If you take concrete and labour and tiling and tiling labour from that What would the new price per square roughly be? Do you think it would bring it down to 11k per square? Family members are tilers and concreters Thanks Re: How much to build this 5Jul 16, 2018 10:01 am mizlong Family members are tilers and concreters Thanks You will save very little as the Concretor will become a nominated Subcontractor subjected to Builders Margins & Costs, so the builder won't pass on saving Generally concretor is 8% Of the contract, if the savings varies 10% you save .8% Goodluck Designer,Engineer (Civil,Const & Envir),Builder,Concrete & Masonry Contract.Struct Repairs 7 12004 I thought this would be a popular question but I haven't been able to find any similar posts.
