How much does a turnkey house cost in 2026? Real prices per m²
"How much does a house cost?" is every builder's first question — and "it depends" helps nobody. So straight to numbers: with us, a turnkey masonry house costs from about CZK 31,000/m² of usable area excl. VAT. A 120 m² house thus comes to roughly 3.7–4.3 million, a 300 m² house to 9–11 million depending on material and specification.
What the turnkey price includes
- foundation slab and structural shell including the roof,
- windows, doors, insulated facade,
- complete services: wiring, water, drainage, heating,
- plasters, screeds, floors, tiling, sanitary ware,
- painting and finishing to move-in condition.
Not included: the plot, utility connections at the boundary, design and fees — budget those separately.
What affects the price most
- Size and shape: every projection, bay and complex roof adds cost. A simple rectangle is most efficient.
- Storeys: a bungalow needs more foundation and roof for the same area — usually slightly more per m² than a two-storey house.
- Wall material: timber frame is usually cheapest; brick and VELOX a few percent more.
- Specification: the difference between standard and premium (floors, sanitary ware, windows) is easily 20–25%.
- Technology: heat pump, heat recovery, photovoltaics — comfort and savings, but +CZK 250k to +1 million.
Where you can reasonably save
- a simpler house and roof shape instead of complex effects,
- a smart layout without extra corridors — every m² saved is CZK 31k+,
- standard window formats instead of custom ones,
- phasing: terrace, pergola or garage can be added later.
Where not to save: foundations, insulation, roof and windows — mistakes there are the most expensive to fix.
