[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our cape cod was always 2 levels, 20 years ago we blew out the back and added a 2 story addition, family room below and main bedroom/bath above. We also redid the front porch at that time, as well as gutted the kitchen and 2 full bathrooms. Back then we budgeted $300k and it ended up costing $328k. My guess is it would be at least double that now [/quote] This seems right to me. About 4 years ago, we had an architect design and got bids for a two story extension for a non-cape cod house. The bids came in around $600k. This was in the middle between high end and builder grade. [/quote] We did something similar 5 years ago near Kensington MD and it was about $450k all in. Contract signed just before Covid and we were spared most of the inflationary construction costs during the pandemic. [/quote]
