Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Cost to build Metricon home - Glendale / Salamanca 7Apr 26, 2020 12:19 pm [quote="allthingsnice":3jwtuiu4][quote="shokel1975":3jwtuiu4]it depends on how many upgrades you want. We just moved into our Glendale 42. Base price with Peninsula facade was $320K, ended up spending about $530K plus another $40K for site costs. This price included exposed agg driveway, $15K for a brick shed/single garage in backyard, $22K for refrig cooling/heating unit. Didn't include carpet as we did this after handover. It all depends on your upgrades. Have a look at my thread for just some of the upgrades list - but I haven't listed all the individual selections. We didn't really go with anything standard - I think the only standard item was the laundry tap and style of ppts. Everything else was upgraded - taps, basins, counters, skirts, arcs, balustrade, bricks, mortar, tiles, windows, etc etc.[/quote:3jwtuiu4] Many thanks for the information !

Thanks in advance[/quote:3jwtuiu4] Thank you! We are very happy with how our home turned out 😊 You can definitely get something great for $600,000. We really didn’t make any changes to the floor plan other than extending the outdoor room to the corner of the house. Landscaping will depend on how much hard landscaping you’ve got vs soft landscaping e.g. concreting, paving, retaining walls etc. That’s where the cost is. If you’re getting someone to do it all I would estimate about $30,000. But again, there are so many variables – block size, slope of block.... We already paid for somfy motors for the blinds. The quote above was purely for “pre-wiring” so the blinds company can install the motors and blinds. That’s why we… 5 16275 The last home I lived in didn't have a pool and when i went to sell it the agents were not happy, even telling me to put one in to sell the place.
