I recently completed building a campish type house on an island in Winni. However, your inquiry clearly gives the perception that you "already know" what it takes and what is involved. Therefore, you should realize that there is no $$$$ amount someone can give you until you define what it really is that you plan to build. If you want numbers, for "only" the physical dwelling, then $160 to $275 per foot is the low range (and costs keep going up, so it will probably be 20% higher or more next year; the labor rates alone that I was able to get 6 months ago have already gone up 25%). Sounds like you better do a lot more thinking and get a lot better informed before you go any further.
