Any advise on how to keep the overall cost of the project down would be appreciated.  The current house now is a little over 700 square feet and the new addition we have in mind is somewhere between 800-1100 square feet, no basement.  We want to add a big living room, a master bedroom and a big bathroom.  Also including a few modifications to the old house.  In the kitchen, just adding a bigger window and a dishwasher.  And taking the tub/shower out of the small bathroom we use now and adding a stand up shower.  Removing the current front door and replacing it with a big window.  (we'll be adding a new front door in the addition.)  Oh, and building a 24x30 garage in the backyard. 


For you folks in the know about line of work, what would your ballpark guesstimate be for this project? 

Did you leave a 1 out? if not your current house would be the addition.

WTS, Make sure you are planning on growing roots or it may be more beneficial just to sell and upgrade.
