Look for something super simple. Just a shell with a hip roof. Siding. Just look for the following material costs.
Framing: studs, joists and rafters.
Siding: cheapest that doesn't look too bad if painted.
Roofing

Not worried about windows or doors at this time. Thanks OB!

Metal would be cheaper... If you want wood, give me a zip code and I will run a quick estimate...

I would contact wilson construction as I and my father in law have used them in the past. They use treated timber with corrugated sheet metal. I had a 18x40 with 14' rafter height camper shelter installed for $6500. wilson pole barns

Why are you doing a hip? Costs more and you miss out on storage space.
