I'm afraid even that might be harder than you expect. My sister recently acquired a few acres in the middle of nowhere. The land and construction costs for an extremely modest house are pushing $1 million.

My extremely very modest house is one room up and one room down and not all that big a room either. A little old stone 'man made cave structure' called romatically a 'cottage'. Still, it's less to heat in winter and we only need to be inside in summer to sleep, most of the time. I know most in the C21 don't wnat to be living like that though..
I hope your sister's project goes well and she she has found her perfect place. This isn't going to get any easier for any of us.
It's gotten pretty bad. That's one reason I rather look forward to financial implosion. It's insane that housing has become so unaffordable, and a huge part of the reason for that is the market distortion caused by the legacy monetary system.
