How much does a modular house cost in 2026?
Realistic turnkey budgets for wooden modular homes — what is included, what costs extra, and how to read a price offer correctly.
The honest answer depends on the site, structure, energy specification, finishes, transport, foundations and connections. Compare a dated, itemised project proposal rather than a headline price per square metre.
Those numbers cover far more than walls: structure, high-performance insulation, triple-glazed windows, complete electrical and plumbing systems, interior finishes and installation on your land.
What drives the price
Four factors matter most. Size — smaller homes cost more per square metre because kitchens and bathrooms are the expensive rooms. Finish level — the step from standard to premium finishes adds roughly 15%. Site conditions — access, foundations and utility connections vary from plot to plot. And options — terraces, photovoltaics or a heat pump are priced as clear line items, not hidden margins.
What is usually not included
The land itself, its geotechnical survey, utility network extensions when a plot has no connections nearby, and furniture. A serious offer states these exclusions explicitly — if an offer does not, ask why.
How to compare offers
Compare only turnkey prices with a written specification: insulation thickness, window type, heating system, warranty terms. A low price with a vague specification is the most expensive option on the market.
