Pretty sure you had more than 900 sq feet unless you ate your meals outside?
Tell me you have never been in a little house. Lol. A legal bedroom where I grew up is 75 sq ft. In California it's 70.
That actually does explain it. I was thinking 100 sqft bedrooms. That gives 75 sqft back to the kitchen/common areas.
I think sqft isn't a great metric for understanding three size or feel of a house, especially for US Americans. I think most houses have rooms that are too big for their uses, especially bedrooms. When I was looking into moving a year ago I found a house with the same number of bedrooms and bathrooms as my current house but 1/3rd smaller in sqft. And I WANTED to move there because the house was cooler and nicer than mine!
