Yes - I understand if you do not use a room – you wouldn’t have to clean it as often. But it is common sense that if you have a larger house - it's going to be more difficult to clean. Example if you are moving out of the house – it’s going to be much more difficult in a bigger house to clean up than a smaller house. I’m sure if you had a mansion, it would be harder to clean than a little apartment.

Ok, when you take it to the extremes you got it right. But I've been living in both this size as now, a little more than 200 ft2 and also apartments in the size about 800 ft2 and from my excperience it is more work with cleaning a 200 ft2 apartment.

But it mabye has to do with the fact that I live alone, when I'm in a bigger ap. it gets dusty very slow. And also that I can be quite picky about dust so I give my 200 ft2 ap. a full cleaning about every fifth day. The case for my observation can also be that when I lived in bigger apartments it was outside the central town or in a smaller town, and currently my birdnest is centrally located in a big town and are much more exposed to traffic pollution etc.. That has probably a lot to do with it too. You could be right.

I don't plan on having visitors, either, but somehow the in-laws always seem to show up. :indiff:

Could be worse, I always have to go to the in-laws. An hour ago I was informed by email that we were going over just to visit. I'd rather they come over. At least then I could watch what I want instead of CSPAN.
 
Around 2900 sq-ft.
Five bedrooms, three of which are actually bedrooms. One of them is a guest room and the another is turned into a study.
Kitchen (duh)
2 bathrooms, 2 WCs, a sauna, a big living/dining room, utility room, another living room and small room with no real usage upstairs and a balcony.

I guess that's it

Here's my humble abode. We had some serious flooding when this pic was taken.

Seriously though,
our new house (which is a 6 year project, 2.5 years complete) is going to be in the neighborhood of 7bed/9bath. +3bed/3bath outside the mainhouse.

:)

Edit: How did I forget the absolute best part --- 16 car garage. [Divided into a main 4 stall garage, and a secondary 12 car]
After all, who cares how big the house is, so long as you have a massive garage filled with cool cars, right, :sly:
 
4 bedrooms 2 bath and over 4k sq feet.



Built in late 1800's.


Water heating..... no AC


10 ft ceilings on main floor.. Awesome house though...

:confused:


I used to live in an 11,000 Sq. foot house on 13 acres off of 175th st & Metcalf... (not that anyone here cares where that is

We had a barn! And a pool. I miss that place..

Then my parents got divorced, and sold it.

So, my dad's house is around 2700 sq. ft,

And mom's is 3000 sq ft.
 
dont know how many square feet, but it has 3 bedrooms and 2 bath, and living in bay area california its worth alot.
lets just say i could move to texas and buy 2 houses that are both bigger than what i have here. :D
 
no matter where you go in texas, its always humid, so if i had to move anywhere, id probably want to move to san diego. or Orange county.

and a water front house can probably double that here, heck even a house in San Francisco goes to the millions and those are crappy non beach front.
 
5 bedroom (2 kinda small, guess what? I'm in one of them.)
largish living room
Kitchen/Diner.
Utility room.
2 bathrooms.

The originall house (1/2 of the original farm house) is basically the living room, bathroom and one bedroom. We have 2ft thick stone walls :p and about 100 years old. (House down road near 150 yrs, Grade 3 listed.)

But the rest is 2 modern extensions.

Garden is a decent size, we have 3 sheds :sly:
 
4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 2 toilets, a large living room, which I supose feels much bigger because there isn't wall between the dinning room and the living room whatsoever, a large conservatory, asmall kitchen, no grass whatsoever in the front and back garden, which are pretty small really and a double garage.

Hmm, pretty impressive, though I'm surrounded on all sides by the Angeles National Forest, which is a healthy 650,000 acres. :D Nobody's allowed to build anywhere within like five miles of here.

California in general is known to have expensive homes. It's known that the homes are worth a lot even if it's crap. So a waterfront home like mine is probably cheaper than the average house in California. Especially in the Los Angeles area (from what I heard).

Water front homes like mine in Texas - would probably go for millions in California. Crazy.

Your house could easily go for $1.0M - $1.5M on Lake Austin.

Oh - it's a man-made lake. So it's cheaper.. lol.

They add a lot of fishes. Even though it's man-made - it's HUGE (over-reacted. It's just big).
 
Our house is 2750 sq.ft. including the basement.

Upstairs: My room, a guest room, 2 huge ass closets, and a full bathroom
Main: Living area, kitchen, nook, dining room, laundry area, master bedroom, full bath, and a huge closet
Basement: Wet bar, living area, 2 storage rooms, full bath, bedroom, and my work shop.

Garage I can't use since my mom runs her business out of it.

Yes I have a basement and yes it is a Midwest thing.
