What’s Not Included
Please note that we cover all cottage related costs.
You will need to organise and pay for your site related building consent costs, though we will help you with this also.
Organise details for site consent with architect:
- Including cottage placement, services required
- We have the same architect we use and they will complete this work for you
- $3,400 + GST
Building Consent for your site:
- The architect will arrange for this and submit required documentation
- Approx $2,500 + GST
Soil testing:
- This is required to determine good ground for foundations and required for site building consent
- The architect will arrange for this approx $1,500 + GST
Council development contribution fee (if a secondary dwelling):
- You can call council and find out the cost for this when working through costs also
- These can range from $5,000 (rural sites) to $17,000 (town sites)
Organise to have your services set up and connected (water / waste / power / internet):
- The cottage comes completely compliant & ready to connect to your site services as part of the building consent
- You just need to sort a local drainlayer and electrician to hook up the cottage once it arrives to your site (we have plenty of recommendations for this)
Drapes and Curtains:
- Dot from On A Roll Curtains can help you with this if required, she’s got some great end of line quality options at an affordable rate
Please be aware that if you are planning on having a secondary dwelling, some councils have implemented an infrastructure/development fee that is site specific. You can check if this applies to you and what this cost would be by calling council.
