Is $600,000 Enough to Build a House? – Cost Analysis 2025

📌 PLN 600,000 – a budget with potential

In 2025, PLN 600,000 is a budget that offers a realistic chance of building a full-size, year-round home . However, this doesn't mean complete freedom – technological choices, location, and finishing standard are important.

🏗️ What can you build for 600,000 PLN?

House type Surface Technology Condition
Prefabricated house 100 m² turnkey ✅
Brick house 100 m² developer ✅
Brick house 120–130 m² closed shell ✅
Frame house 120 m² turnkey (economical version) ✅

If you have a plot of land and do not have to finance the land from this budget, the possibilities are wide.

🧾 What does the cost of PLN 600,000 include?

  • project and formalities,

  • foundations,

  • walls, roof, joinery,

  • all installations,

  • heating (e.g. heat pump or electric),

  • plasters, floors, bathrooms, kitchen,

  • basic equipment (no luxury).

Does not include: landscaping, custom-made furniture, high-class finishes (stone, wood, loft buildings).

✅ What houses do we recommend in this budget?

The Domki Marysia team recommends:

  • 100 m² turnkey prefabricated house with the possibility of extension,

  • house up to 90 m² with a large terrace and a smart home system,

  • 70–80 m² house with luxurious finishing.

Each of these options can fit within a budget of PLN 600,000.

💡 Tip: Leave a 10–15% buffer for unexpected expenses

In 2025, it's still worth leaving at least PLN 60,000–90,000 as a buffer. Even with prefabricated construction, additional costs may arise: land development, access, utilities, transport, and furniture.
