Cost Construction to Build a 325 Square Yard House? A Complete Guide 

A 325 square yard plot size typically enables the creation of very flexible layouts that can accommodate amenities such as outdoor spaces, dedicated family lounges, large kitchens, and multiple bedrooms. It is particularly well-suited for families who are in search of a larger residence without incurring the big expenses associated with larger lots. The adaptability of this scale is what sets it apart—it can be configured to include independent units for multigenerational families or even rented out for supplemental income. 

Plots of this size are also highly viable for rental purposes. The properties constructed on these plots may be configured as either single- or multi-unit residences, with individual units rented out. 

Several costs are associated with the construction of a 325 sq yd plot, beginning with the grey structure. This structure includes excavation, foundation, walls, roof construction, essential materials such as cement and steel, and labor expenses. The cost of finishing is contingent upon the quality of the work. A-grade finishes are characterized by mid-range tiles and fixtures, while premium finishes are characterized by high-end materials such as imported tiles and designer fittings. Additional expenses for rental properties may encompass maintenance allowances, basic or semi-luxury furnishings, and partitioning for separate entrances. Customization for distinctive designs and outdoor areas, such as gardens or parking, may increase the overall budget for family use.

Predicted Covered Areas:

For a plot of this size, the predicted covered areas are spread across several levels. The basement normally measures roughly 1,150 square feet and provides adequate space for storage, utilities, and even recreational usage. The covered area on the ground level is roughly 2,200 square feet, allowing for ample space for common living rooms such as the living room, kitchen, and dining room. The first level has around 1,700 square feet and is ideal for various bedrooms, bathrooms, and personal living areas. If there is a second floor, it adds approximately 400 square feet, which is excellent for additional rooms or for domestic staff amenities. 

Costs Per Square Ft:

The grey structural phase, which includes the foundation, walls, and roof, typically costs roughly PKR 3,500 per square foot for a basement due to additional excavation and waterproofing requirements. Above-ground levels cost around PKR 2,600 per square foot. Once the construction is completed, the finishing charges begin. Premium finishes, such as imported tiles and high-end fittings, can cost up to PKR 4,300 per square foot, although a mid-range “A grade” finish typically costs around PKR 3,500.
