How many trees it takes to build a house depends on the size, style and finish of the house. It varies considerably.
According to the Idaho Forest Products Commission, a typical 2000 square foot house requires 26,700 board feet. An "average" tree with a 20 inch diameter and 42 linear feet of usable wood generates approximately 260 board feet. Doing the math indicates about 102 trees for that house.
Other organizations in the lumber industry state different numbers, some as low as 30 trees for a 1500 square foot house while some state 60 trees for a 2000 square foot house.
