Russian term or phrase: Что нам стоит дом построить
Может быть существует уже утвержденный вариант?

Желательно не только передать смысл, но сохранить связь со "строительством дома" (если возможно)

What it takes to build a house


Explanation:
Утвержденного варианта нет и быть не может. Это не пословица и не идиома, чтобы к ней был эквивалент. Это строки из стихотворения. Какой может быть эквивалент у "Я помню чудное мгновение..."? Только прямой перевод. Вот вам "окомпьютезированный" вариант:
What it takes to build a house
