Wooden holiday house – is it worth it in 2026?
A wooden holiday house is a dream for many – your own corner by a lake, in the mountains or in Masuria. But beyond the dream, is there a hard economic calculation? In this article, we analyse how much a holiday house really costs, how much you can earn from it, and why prefabrication changes the rules.
How much does a holiday house cost?
Market price range is enormous – from PLN 50,000 for a basic shed to over a million for an exclusive leisure residence. At Treevia, we recommend two models:
