What is recorded is the number of habitable rooms — bedrooms and reception rooms together — and the total floor area. In Abinger Common, Abinger Hammer, homes with the same number of habitable rooms vary enormously in size.
| Habitable rooms | Smaller (10th) | Typical | Larger (90th) | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| 2 | 40 m² | 41 m² | 50 m² | 88 |
| 3 | 54 m² | 59 m² | 74 m² | 258 |
| 4 | 61 m² | 77 m² | 95 m² | 207 |
