• Bathroom has cabinets: solid quarter sawn oak, and toilet.
• 700 sq’ of tile for floors.
• Picture below represents ADU over 2 car garage.
• 2” x 6” framing.
This house cost the owner $85,000 to build. Given the building’s Energy Rating, it won’t take much to heat! It has great air flow and natural light via location of doors and windows. The owner is willing to listen to any purchase idea. For example, if you have vacant land and think you could sell quicker with small house, then we could possibly make a deal on selling the two as a package. If there is interest in a 2 story structure: ADU on top of a 700 sq’ garage, the owner still has the garage walls in sections that can be constructed under the ADU as was planned (in drawing below). This is a GREAT deal for anyone that is looking for a small getaway house in the mountains. Majority of the work is completed, dry walled and painted, now just lay the tile put in the cabinets and hang the lights.

Been building since '77. Without a lot you should think in the $165/s.f range plus costs to remove an existing home from a site. I have 1 new home left in the Wellshire neighborhood. it is a main mastered with an unfinished basement. See 3070 S. Jackson at my web site http://holbenhomes.com It currently is not in MLS. 0 votes • Reply • Flag • Link • Thu May 10, 2012

Jason,
I work with a lot of Scrape Developers in Central Denver. Their cost per SF to build a 2,000'ish SF above grade home with average+ finishes is about $130/SF. Now realize, that is THEIR cost. To build for a customer, they will add market up & fees to provide for their living of building homes. Just like any business & industry, how much mark up will vary greatly, but this will give you a place to start.
Estimated costs to finish ADU in Chaffee County:
Tap Fee’s - $12,000
Crawl space foundation - $6,000
Finish work / materials - $7,000
Move building - $5,000
Total - $33,000
Average market cost to build per square foot - $147.50
$50,000 / 700 = $71.43
$83,000 /700 = $118.57per sq foot Still much lower than the average price per square foot, your saving almost $30 per square foot.
$50,000 + $33,000= $83,000/700 = $118.57per square foot. (Which includes the crawl space and tap fees, $18,000, which aren’t usually in costs/sq’.)
