Does anyone know the average cost per m2 to have a new house built in Ireland?

We are looking into costs of either brick and block or timber framed houses.


Finding land is proving quite simple, but we need to know the costs of having the house built.


Any help or information gratefully received.

My friend was going to build a house in Northern Ireland but apparently they have changed the legistation regarding new builds. They are limiting the amount of new builds. Not sure what it is in southern Ireland but I would check with a local solicitor / architect before doing anything else.Does anyone know the average cost per m2 to have a new house built in Ireland?
Its about 拢15.00 Irish Punds to the square Irish inch, which is just short of an Eygptian honk and is round. Also, the money has to be divided by three as there are four branches of the Irish economy. The first is the 'Leprochauns Society for Peace While You're Building Society'. Second is the 'Clover Society' which checks that the weather is fine. Third is the 'Terry Wogan Society for the Underprivileged Guinnes Drinkers Pension Fund' Finally, a contribution to the 'Chinese Blarney Society For The Best Irish Jokes Of All Time'.


And dont forget Irish VAT of 99%!!.
That's like asking how long is a piece of string. The high cost areas like kitchens and bathrooms and the spec of both those greatly influence the overall cost. What I suggest you do, is to look at new build houses in the area you are going to, ask an estate agent what the cost of land is per plot/m2 deduct that from the new houses cost, allow the balance to be divided by 120 to allow for profit and multiply by 100 to give the build cost, divide that by the new house area which will give you a rate per m2 for the construction cost. You can then play with those figures on the basis that yours will be more/less elaborate.
