If you are thinking of building a new house from scratch (often referred to as a self-build) in the London area, we currently recommend allowing between £2,500 and £3,500 per square metre for projects. This range can be narrowed once we understand:
  • Whether a basement is required to achieve your target floor area
  • Likely construction method and structural approach
  • Desired level of fixtures, fittings and finishes
  • Sustainability targets — from baseline Building Regulations compliance to high-efficiency, eco-friendly homes with significant long-term savings on running costs, improved air quality, and thermal comfort
