We'd probably be clearing about 1.5 acres. I think the expensive part will be bringing in dirt because it will likely need to be raised a good bit.
Hauling off trees is expensive, but you're correct about dirtwork being the most expensive part. It totally depends on the quality of your soil and how much muck out you're looking at. If you want to get an accurate estimate for this, get a couple of dirt guys to come in and take a look at the soil/take a couple of hole samples.

Just to give you a rough idea about dirt work. House pad (80'x90'x32" high), shop pad (50'x50'x6" high), and a driveway (300'x12'x6" high), 6 compaction tests, and a limestone bull rock base over the entire driveway = 2600 yards of fill dirt and cost to be around 40-50k. That is with zero land clearing except scraping the topsoil off. That is with hauling all fill dirt in.
