I've been going through the same thing with a 1901-or-so (records
disagree) 1600 square foot 2-story in Washington State. Obviously
construction costs differ regionally, but even so, it cost us less
than $20,000 to jack up the house, have the old foundation torn out,
and install a new foundation that exceeds seismic codes for Alaska
and California.

A 1600 square foot 2-story has a footprint of 800 square feet, which
is maybe 25 by 32, for a perimeter of 116 feet, call it 120 and it's
$166/foot. Sounds like a good price, I think costs are a bit higher
here in California, maybe $200/foot, not sure lately.
