    I wish a simple answer was available for your question but I'm afraid a straightforward ans doesn't exist.
    If you are looking for a decent standard finish and min B1 rated house, and are willing to invest your time in researching quotes etc you could possibly get €70 per sf but it really depends on what your looking at in terms of spec. You will get an array of responses varying greatly across the country...

    Approx €86 per sq ft for a 2600 sq ft dormer. Builders finish with landscaping front and rear with kerbing, entrance pillars and d-rail fence around site.

    That's an even bigger question. Every small builder in the country will have a different opinion on this but ultimately it is defined by where there quoted builder budget for the jobs stops. You could get hardwood doors or you could get €50 softwood doors picked up from your local hardware store, or you could get no door at all and this is your builders finish.
    Would be very skeptical if a builder is quoting square foot rates to build houses. Your going to need a more detail specification opposed to planning drawings (if I correct in assuming that this is the basis of your pricing documents).
    Will the builders finish include for the landscaping, is it a half acre or a 5m x 10m patch, do you have 100m of kerbing or 50m of kerbing. Even these two items alone could have a €2 to €3 bearing on you square foot price and this is just two items

    yeah my thoughts are the same, would it be fair to say no kerbing or landscaping ,no kitchen or floor coverings or tiles in bathrooms for 70 euro a SQF ???
