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 High Bentham, Austwick, homes with the same number of habitable rooms vary enormously in size.
| Habitable rooms | Smaller (10th) | Typical | Larger (90th) | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 18 m² | 21 m² | 22 m² | 5 |
| 2 | 40 m² | 52 m² | 58 m² | 58 |
| 3 | 46 m² | 57 m² | 75 m² | 225 |
| 4 | 63 m² | 79 m² | 105 m² | 340 |
| 5 | 76 m² | 92 m² | 116 m² | 665 |
| 6 | 106 m² | 135 m² | 183 m² | 356 |
| 7 | 128 m² | 166 m² | 235 m² | 267 |
| 8 | 151 m² | 195 m² | 273 m² | 186 |
| 9 | 182 m² | 240 m² | 329 m² | 94 |
| 10 | 182 m² | 232 m² | 346 m² | 26 |
| 11 | 275 m² | 355 m² | 712 m² | 11 |
| 12 | 288 m² | 377 m² | 377 m² | 7 |
The widest spread here is among homes with 11 habitable rooms, ranging from 275 to 712 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.
