Frequently asked questions about tiny houses
1 / What is the optimal area for a small house?
Our small house projects cover the range between 20 sq m and 120 sq m - enough for a modern home, perhaps a vacation home or a small investment.
2 / How much does it cost to build a small house?
Costs vary depending on the design, type of structure, and finishing materials, but in principle it requires 30 - 50% less budget compared to a classic house.
3 / What minimum area is recommended for a permanent home?
The minimum area for a small house for permanent residence differs depending on the number of people and lifestyle. For a couple or a small family, a house between 70 - 90 square meters may be sufficient, if the spaces are well compartmentalized. For a family with 2 children, the optimal area is between 100 - 120 square meters, with 3 or even 4 bedrooms and a spacious living room.
4 / How much does a small 100 sq m house cost?
The price of a small house of approximately 100 sq m depends on the level of finish, the type of structure (masonry, concrete, wood, metal), the included amenities. Another important factor is the accessibility of the location, the logistics and the teams involved that impose the price of labor. The design and shape of the house, the shape of the roof, also significantly influence the budget. Thus, a general estimate for the turnkey version is between 800 - 1,500 euros per sq m. To obtain the most accurate offer, it is recommended to obtain offers from several builders, but also to perform a comparative analysis of the prices for materials and labor.
