we discussed the construction cost of a 10 Marla house. Before that, we reviewed the cost of a 1 Kanal house, and today we’re covering the cost of a 5 Marla house. So I initially suggested focusing on the most popular areas and plot sizes for making videos, and I’ll continue to share videos on the remaining ones as well. I’ll also cover 8 Marla plots and even combined plot types, which I’ll gradually share over time.
Today, we’re discussing the construction cost of a 5 Marla house, and just like before, we’ll break it down into three categories:
Budget construction
A-quality construction
Premium quality construction
Assumptions – Covered Area
Let’s first go over the assumptions we made for this house:
Basement: 550 sq. ft.
Ground floor: 900 sq. ft.
First floor: 900 sq. ft.
Second floor (only mumtee/stairhead room): 175 sq. ft.
Grey Structure Cost (per sq. ft.)
Basement – A-quality: 4,200/sq. ft.
Remaining house – A-quality: 3,000/sq. ft.
Finishing Cost (per sq. ft.)
Budget finishing: 6,000/sq. ft..
Premium finishing: 7,500/sq. ft.
Total Covered Area Based on House Design
Depending on how many floors you build, the total covered area will be:
Single-story: 900 sq. ft.
Double-story (Ground + First): 1,800 sq. ft.
Basement + Ground only: 1,450 sq. ft.
Basement + Ground + First: 2,350 sq. ft.
Ground + First + Mumtee (2nd floor): 1,975 sq. ft.
All floors including Mumtee: 2,525 sq. ft.

Summary
For a 5 Marla house, costs will range depending on the number of floors, quality of material, and finishing:
Single-story (budget): Starts from PKR 5–6 million
Double-story to Triple-story (with mumtee): Range from PKR 10 million to PKR 21 million
Costs vary based on location, materials, and finishing preferences.
These are tentative costs to give you a clear budget idea. There could be a 5–10% variation depending on your choices and execution. By adjusting the material quality and quantity, you can optimize your overall cost.
