	RESIDENTIAL SQUARE FOOT BUILDING COSTS

LUXURY

This class of residence is constructed to meet the "unique and demanding" individual requirements of the design architect and owner. They normally exceed code requirements and provide "one of a kind," attractive and comfortable accommodations. There are many special design features that make the residence attractive from the exterior. These features often consist of special and unconventional building materials and craftsmanship which dominates the appearance of the residence. The interior finishes have many expensive features which include exotic woods and hand made ornamentation. The windows and doors are carefully manufactured of high grade materials and are carefully installed. Kitchen cabinets are crafted from exotic wood and plumbing fixtures are "built-in" and superior in quality and installation. The quality of workmanship is indicative of experienced craftsmen working in close cooperation with an architect or professional designer. Attention to detail takes precedent over all other considerations.
