3 bedroom/2 bath/ attached 2-car garage
We also have a basement - you don’t usually find these in FL, but our lot slopes rather steeply, so the back half is over a walk-out basement. The front half is over a crawlspace.
Sweet Jesus, you Americans live in some enormous houses. I’ll bring down the average for you, Aro.

Ditto. Except substitute “Northeast Kansas” for “Northern Ireland”.
I do have a full (unfinished) basement, though, so technically I could double the size of my house, if I weren’t poor . . .

(note: trying to care for and maintain a large home quickly takes away some of the rewards of living in one. I live in my finished basement most of the time. Like the cozy-ness))
1500 square feet, 2 floors (3 if you count the attic)
3 bedroom/2 bathroom
2 car garage, 3 acres of forest, swimming pool, 4 decks
We also have a huge vaulted ceiling in the living room, and our upstairs is not so big. However, we do live at the end of a private drive (cul de sac) with a fountain and the entire property around our house is riddled with gardens.
2.5 bdrm/2 bath cottage. Square footage is kinda questionable due to remodeling and add-ons, but probably around 1230.
Los Angeles area.
Ary, your bungalow is not small compared to the other cottages in my neighborhood (average 900).
North Atlanta suburbs. 1800 Sq Ft. 3 BR, 2.5 bath.
Very small yard.
My SO and I are trying to save some money, so I might win the “smallest apartment” award:
426 Sq. feet. 1 bed, 1 bath.
LA area
Yikes.
I beat you in the tinyness contest lightingtool. My apartment is 320 square feet. That’s the standard size for an old New York tenement. But back then it would have had seven people in it, and now it’s mine, all mine.
I live in a condo at 560 sq. feet. Aro, I wonder what the average was before and after these last 3 posts.
West MI.
2600 sq. ft., small city lot, ranch style (We have a large finished basement, so this adds to the total).
3 bedrooms w/ non-conforming 4th.
1 1/2 bathrooms.
1 stall garage.
Love the house, wish the garage and yard were bigger though.
