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 Abbas Combe, Henstridge, homes with the same number of habitable rooms vary enormously in size.
| Habitable rooms | Smaller (10th) | Typical | Larger (90th) | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 31 m² | 36 m² | 44 m² | 18 |
| 3 | 55 m² | 69 m² | 77 m² | 69 |
| 4 | 68 m² | 81 m² | 119 m² | 70 |
| 5 | 84 m² | 107 m² | 147 m² | 111 |
| 6 | 93 m² | 121 m² | 175 m² | 100 |
| 7 | 118 m² | 147 m² | 191 m² | 67 |
| 8 | 121 m² | 169 m² | 251 m² | 41 |
| 9 | 192 m² | 206 m² | 253 m² | 21 |
| 10 | 171 m² | 282 m² | 351 m² | 20 |
| 11 | 297 m² | 361 m² | 402 m² | 6 |
The widest spread here is among homes with 8 habitable rooms, ranging from 121 to 251 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.
