[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends. Older kids need less space because they don't have toys or gear. They do need a separate family room or basement IMHO. My two cents: rather than square footage, focus on how you live, and how you use space. For me, I like having a proper pantry and mud room or extra storage closet. Honestly, you could get rid of my formal living and dining rooms and I wouldn't miss them. I'm much more attached to my kitchen cabinets and laundry room adjacent to the master bedroom. [/quote] This is good advice. We prefer smaller bedrooms and larger common spaces, particularly a kitchen big enough for family and friends to hang out while we make dinner. We're more than happy as a family of five+dog in a 1200 sf house w/ full finished basement, though I wish our kitchen were a little bigger.[/quote]
