We hope you will recognise by now, whether or not your dreams and ideas are 'affordable' depends very much on the design, specification, location and method of building it. The indicative costs given here are only a part of the equation and DO NOT include site specific works, like drains, fences, driveways, paths and landscaping. Talk to us if you need more information on this. However, the range of costs indicated should help you to adjust yur ideas and aspirations to something you can afford - with luck it might be more than you originally thought.
Designing and Building the structural timber frame kit for your house 'Off-Site", is a Modern Method of Construction (MMC). Making this in our dry controlled, factory environment is more accurate, efficient, safer, creates less waste, and is overall less costly than trying to do this when exposed to the elements.
Using this Instant 'Building Cost Ready Reckoner" will have helped you get a feel for how much your dream home will cost you. A significant part of this will be the Timber Frame House 'Kit' that you choose. As you have seen, there are many different types and configurations, all impacting on your building costs. omega replica
