The space signal
Property listings describe homes by bedroom count, but that is not recorded in any public dataset. What is recorded is the number of habitable rooms — bedrooms and reception rooms together — and the total floor area. In Balsall Heath, Deritend, homes with the same number of habitable rooms vary enormously in size.
| Habitable rooms | Smaller (10th) | Typical | Larger (90th) | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 24 m² | 42 m² | 47 m² | 8 |
| 2 | 37 m² | 48 m² | 56 m² | 94 |
| 3 | 47 m² | 61 m² | 88 m² | 59 |
| 4 | 60 m² | 72 m² | 90 m² | 183 |
| 5 | 71 m² | 88 m² | 109 m² | 343 |
| 6 | 86 m² | 106 m² | 150 m² | 179 |
| 7 | 116 m² | 135 m² | 163 m² | 57 |
| 8 | 140 m² | 167 m² | 202 m² | 23 |
| 9 | 120 m² | 194 m² | 230 m² | 7 |
| 10 | 208 m² | 217 m² | 221 m² | 5 |
The widest spread here is among homes with 1 habitable rooms, ranging from 24 to 47 m². Two properties advertised the same way can differ by more than half their floor area, which is why price per square metre is a more useful comparison than price alone.
