[quote=Anonymous]Like you OP, we have ~4,000 square feet. It's PLENTY for a family of five (especially if you need a home office), but if we made enough I'd probably look for a 5,000 sq ft home for similar reasons as you point out (larger kitchen, mud room, slightly larger rooms overall). But I have noticed that it often depends on the layout. We have friends with homes the same size as ours whose kitchen layouts allow for a huge island in the middle, but ours doesn't. Everyone we live near either has 3,500 to 4,000 sq ft homes or 7,500 to 8,000 sq ft homes. It seems like there are fewer options in the middle. And yes, I know any family can live perfectly find in a 2,500 sq ft home (family of 5)... but if money isn't an issue, many people will upsize if they have a family[/quote]
