[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]4K is not that huge for this area.  You make it sound like it’s a 10K sq.ft. Home.   :lol:  If you have 3 kids and want each of them have a room and and especially personal bathrooms (or same sex bathrooms) and an office/guest room, you will use up all this space quickly.   Extra living areas like basement can be quickly occupied by play equipment, or a ping pong/pool table for older kids, plus any exercise equipment.   I think you are stressing out more by appearances trying to make your dwelling attractive to the visitors or impressive and always picture ready vs. making a comfy living space for your family.  FWIW, we have 3K sq.ft. And don’t have formal living/dining rooms, so everything is used and used up.  I do wish we had more space and separate bathrooms for diff sex children. [/quote]

+1.  We have a custom 10ksqt home (3levels) for a family of 4.  We use all but a couple of rooms.  You grow into the space. Prior we were in a 6k sq ft home and the current one feels more comfortable - but not overwhelming.  The big costs are outdoor property upkeep such as lawn care, driveway, trees, patios, pool etc.  The home is well built so same energy (if not lower) vs the 6k sqft home.  [/quote]

How much do you spend on outdoor maintenance upkeep, just curious[/quote]
