    If there has not been a dwelling on this land you start from scratch. Permits for a well, septic system, building permit, and perhaps even an environmental impact. You will pay to have electricity brought to your building. Some locations will not allow a home that big. You have to go to the local building department and get their advice. Where I live, no new wells are permitted, so no building permits have been issued.

    How much & what do I need.Every time I read that in a question I just want to sceam. You have to ask the people that issues permits and negotiate the costs with a contractor after they have seen your plans and requirements. If you are rich enough to afford this type of project then you should be aware of this.

    Good Luck !
