Estimated cost of a single story house near prasat. Land already purchased!

It's really a rubber band question, depending of what quality of house you are looking for.

 

In Prasat area it's often used to hire a crew to build the house – they'll give a quote after a specified architect drawing – and the owner then buys all materials. So what kind of blocks, do you want to use, normal ones, or the Q-blocks at three times the price? Do you use waterproof cement mix, or normal mix? What grade of steel? What roof? What tiles – mind you half the costs or more can be decoration – and paint etc. etc.?

 

A relative good parameter is 10,000 baht a square meter, easily more if you wish proper materials and roof tiles (especially without cracking cement on the roof), and less if you downgrade your expectations.

 

A friend ended up paying 2 million baht for a one story 2-bedroom house of around 100 square meter plus a big terrace, and a wall around a fairly small land-plot in Prasat area (closer to Kap Choen), another made a little village house there for 500,000 baht. A third friend paid little less than a million baht for a quite big one-story house same area, and got quality thereafter, including roof with cracking cement, leaks, and no trace of builders.

 

If you are going to buy materials yourself, you'll need to be there during the construction period. It's anyway advisable to be there.

 

My own Thai house building experience is from a southern island, where it's slightly more expensive to build, and you'll normally use a building contractor. Our cost parameter begin at 15,000 baht a square meter.

You can also export a prefab house and assemble it on your land. Something like these

Would not the shipping cost and import tax be cost prohibitive?

well you have had a lot of useless advice? I'm not being funny when I say that it will cost you as much as you are willing to spend for the level of comfort, quality of fittings and services and 'westernisation' you are looking for.  If you want a more accurate idea, then you need to do your own 'Bill Of Quantities', choosing the type and quality of the interior fittings, size, etc you are expecting. The actual shell of the building is relatively easy to predict for a local builder, it's the fitting out that pushes up the cost. For example, cost of the land and my house shell, with services connected,  cost 4.2 million, fitting out another 2 million.

What a silly question. How long is a piece of string?
What type of toilets will you have?

Once saw something similar on a Lancaster bomber. Aiming is a bit tricky .

 

Afterwards you have to shout ' Bombs away skipper ' for some reason or other.

cost of building a house has a big scope and therefore varied price range.

2 Bedroom block & tile single story, standard fittings =  10,000 bht / m2

2 Bedroom block & tile single story, high end fittings =  14,000 - 16,000 bht /m2

3 Bedroom block and tile, double story, standard fittings = 14,000 - 16,000 bht /m2

3 Bedroom block and tile, double story, high end fittings = 15,000 - 17,000 bht /m2

 

The price for contruction, painting, fittings such as air cons, tapware, roofing, tile selection etc .... can all increase the finished price dramatically ...... so a single story 2 brm can be from 500,000 baht - 800,000 & even up to 1,000,000 baht if everthing is high end finishes and fittings.
