Cost building in South Kerry

    Hello!
    We have purchased an old farmhouse sitting on a field which need to be well drained, especially an area around the existing 1975 20 square meter lean-to, totally damp and mouldy. The old part of the house is surprisingly ok.

    We were told that the best solution would be to knock down this lean-to including its foundations, and to rebuild it from scratch.

    Could anyone give me an idea of cost of knocking it down and rebuilding a 30 sq meter one (indoor measures) including 2 double glazed windows and 1 door? It would become kitchen area, utility room and small toilet.

    It seems that costs are different from one county to another, is Kerry still dearer than most?:confused:

    Is there anyway to get rid of the ground dampness without having to replace existing foundations, by the way?
    Thank you very much for any help or advice.
