[quote=Anonymous]We recently did this and received several quotes that were all in the same ballpark. A one story kitchen + family room addition will cost you at least $200K. Two stories will be at least $350K, probably closer to $400K. Our project took about 6 months, but I know many people who have done similar projects and it can take much longer. And we used mid-to-high finishes, certainly not high end (no Viking, custom cabinets, expensive tile, etc.). Pricing out an addition by square footage doesn't work since there are so many tie-ins with the additional space, plus you have to make changes to the existing space (you don't want to leave the old kitchen in tact, for example). And the person who added an office and a bedroom wouldn't be relevant to your cost. These rooms don't require gas or plumbing, so the cost is considerably less. The kitchen is usually the most expensive part of a project.[/quote]
