Loxone Costs in a New Build: What Drives the Price?
A full Loxone smart home in a premium new build often costs around 30,000-80,000 euros. That range usually includes planning, hardware, the control cabinet, programming, commissioning and documentation. The exact price depends on the size of the property, the number of rooms, the functions required and the quality of the installation. This guide explains the main cost drivers and where it makes sense to prioritise.
Quick Overview
| Area | Typical cost driver |
|---|---|
| Lighting | Number of circuits, dimmers, switches and scenes |
| Shading | Number of blinds, wind protection, sun logic and facades |
| Heating | Rooms, heating circuits, sensors and system interface |
| Cabinet | Size, wiring, reserve space and labelling |
| Programming | Scenes, dependencies, testing and fine-tuning |
| Documentation | Plans, configuration backup, handover and guidance |
Why square metres are not enough
Two houses with the same floor area can have very different smart home budgets. One may need simple lighting and heating control. Another may include many scenes, access control, audio, energy monitoring, garden irrigation and a sauna.
The question is not only how large the house is. The real question is how many parts of the building should work together reliably.
Where to save and where not
| Sensible savings | Do not cut here |
|---|---|
| Add some functions in later phases | Cabling, sensors and reserve capacity |
| Postpone audio, garden or sauna | Cabinet quality and structured wiring |
| Keep utility rooms simpler | Switch logic in daily living areas |
| Fine-tune special logic after moving in | Documentation and configuration backup |
A good smart home does not need every possible feature on day one. It should be prepared so that later upgrades do not become expensive repairs.
Why early planning saves money
Late decisions are the most expensive. If switches, sensors, heating circuits and blinds are discussed after the electrical plan is finished, the project often needs compromises.
GEN Smart Home plans Loxone early together with the homeowner and electrician. You can read more on our Loxone new build page.
Conclusion
The price of a Loxone system reflects more than hardware. It includes planning, coordination, programming and long-term maintainability.

FAQ
What does Loxone cost in a new build?
For premium new builds, 30,000-80,000 euros is a realistic range. Smaller or phased projects can cost less.
Is Loxone more expensive than standard electrics?
Yes, if you only compare the first installation. Loxone also connects functions that standard electrics usually keep separate.
Can Loxone be built in phases?
Yes. The important step is preparing cables, cabinet space and sensors early.
Does GEN offer fixed package prices?
No. A serious quote needs a conversation, plans, desired functions and a technical review.
