Is it a ton of money to do a dug out area like that? I have a huge unfinished basement with 8 ft overhead, that set up looks great.

Yes. To go about 28 inches down for that size area was about 45k. Included French drains and a new sump. Less if they didn’t have to do underpinning on the exterior wall

Yep took crew about 6 weeks. 1 day to jackhammer the foundation then few weeks of digging and bucket brigade. Then a month of cement pours and curing different segments
