Calling bottom on house price market

How big is a house? Average house size by country | shrinkthatfootprint.com

UK house size is relatively small at 76 m2 (818 ft2) ...

That can't be right surely. The places I see on Zoopla are usually at least 2,500 ft^2.

Also, my gaff, which isn't very large, is over eight times that floor area.

Mind you, I drive past some new houses being built near clientco, and they are literally little larger than my garage. It's enough to make one weep.

The Government really should stop letting hordes of immigrants into the country, or new houses will just get smaller and smaller!

FTFY

Also, my gaff, which isn't very large, is over eight times that floor area, and that part just houses my staff.

Nearly right

Also, my gaff, which isn't very large, is over eight times that floor area, and that part just houses my stuff

2500 sq ft is 232 sq meters, and you've got a "gaff" 8 times bigger???

You should see the size of ones built in South Wales when coal become a commodity, they were as small as 6' by 7' to fit a whole family, that probably is the future at this rate

No, I don't live in a palace! I was referring to the 818 sq feet figure.

818 sq ft sounds about right for average house, which is tiny - in London it's even worse: square ft are smaller!

My family in USSR/Russia lived in flat of maybe 37 sq meters, supposedly 3 bedroom, but in British terms it was 2 bedroom + living room. 6th floor too - elevator wasn't always working

I've seen four bedroom new builds, 1 bedroom big enough for double bed (and nothing else). 2 bedrooms big enough for single beds only, and 4th "bedroom" is just big enough for a babies cot.

These are "executive" family homes with a price tag to match.
