Build the largest 'square' box that fits in the space. It saves a load of ballache especially with shelves. Make a plinth to level it too.
Price varies madly depending on materials, finish quality, interior fittings, location (in the country) etc. A quick and dirty version unpainted in thin MDF is a couple of days work. Upwards from that could be anything!
Airhead-
Cheers. Guess the box part makes sense as then you're not trying to fit everything into weird spaces.

How do you then fit it to he awkward walls - I'm guessing some sort of face trim that you tracewigglecut* to match the walls?
* I'm drawing a complete blank on the actual word.

Pondering getting this kind of alcove cupboard for the bedroom, either side of a chimney breast.
The likely route is getting someone in to do it but I'm aware that will likely be fairly pricey so may not happen for a while. The alternative is me trying to make them but I could see that being fraught with issues in our house with no right angles. Has anyone made similar, how tricky was it?
Also, any ideas on how much it would cost to get someone in to do them?
