Our Pricing
Our homes are custom designed by our in-house Architects and priced very competitively with other custom, Architect-designed homes. There are two cost components to building one of our homes/additions: the Acorn Deck House Component Package and On-Site Construction by Local Builder:
Acorn Deck House Component Package
The cost for the Acorn Deck House Component Package includes the custom design development by our Registered Architects from concept to complete working drawings, as well as the prefabricated structural components needed for the weathertight shell of your home: including the posts and beams, wall panels, windows and roof. Many interior finishes are also included, such as stairs, rails, doors and trim.
Depending on your personal preferences and the complexity of your home’s design, the cost of our home package can vary, but is typically 1/3 of the overall cost of the project. Some of the items that will affect the cost of your Component Package are the home’s structural system, the number and style of windows and the choice of trim and finishes.
One of the strongest benefits to our Acorn Deck House Component Package pricing is that it is predictable and controllable.
On-Site Construction by Local Builder
This is the cost for your local builder to make your home operational. It includes the builder’s price for the foundation, to frame and finish the house, all mechanical systems, sheetrock, and painting. It also includes the variable allowances for your choices in cabinetry, countertops, appliances, tile, finish floors and lighting. This cost can fluctuate vastly depending on the level of finishes and builder selection; however, for upfront estimating purposes, this cost is generally two times the Acorn Deck House Component Package cost.
Combined Pricing Estimate
Excluding the cost of your site and any site work (excavation, utilities, etc.), but including the Acorn Deck House Component Package + On-Site Construction by Local Builder (as outlined above), the starting price for:
- an average 1,500 s.f. home is usually ~$900,000+
- an average addition is usually $100,000 – $400,000
- an average carport or screened porch is Per Estimate
- an average garage is Per Estimate
- an average (3-bay) conservatory renovation is usually $100,000 – $140,000
