    Most had like a tiny shed for gardening tools. Nevertheless building a house on their dacha called just "building dacha" was the project for many Soviet and post-Soviet people.

      So something like "строить дачу", building as a verb? My Russian is crude, but I try.

      A friend of mine showed me the dacha her parents built. It's basically a picnic pavilion with a couple rooms. No heat or electricity, but it's where they hang out in good weather and eat shaschlik.
